Q: Who qualifies for the eAngels Equity Membership Network?
All members of the eAngels Equity network must have sufficient net worth or income to be "accredited investors," as defined under federal securities laws, since eAngels Equity offerings will generally exclude non-accredited investors. Moreover, the high-risk, high-potential nature of investing in emerging growth companies and proprietary Hedge Funds, Trading Portfolios, Venture Capital Limited Partnerships, and Sector-specific asset management services, means that Network Members should be able to afford the risk and, in some cases, the lack of liquidity associated with investing in eAngels Equity offerings.
Q: What is the minimum level of investment for participation in eAngels Equity?
Aside from the annual membership fees for participation in the eAngels Equity Membership Network, a Network Member who chooses to participate in an eAngels Equity offering can generally invest as much as he or she chooses, subject to any minimum investment requirement that may apply to a particular financing.
Q: What does a Network Member get for their annual fee?
Deal Flow
Network Members receive a cost-effective way to become part of an extensive network of investors, executives, and possible strategic partners, with unparalleled access to high-quality investment opportunities. In exchange for an annual membership fee, members of our network have access to select the eAngels Equity investment opportunities they wish to pursue. Moreover, eAngels Equity Network Members will also have access to the members-only portion of the eAngels.com web site, where Network Members can find the most promising up-to-date eAngels Equity investment offerings.
Networking Opportunities
Network Members derive benefits from participation in our active network of asset management professionals, entrepreneurs, and business contacts.

These conferences are aimed at providing a venue for entrepreneurs and our member investors to network.
Q: Does eAngels Equity receive compensation from Client Companies?

Q: Will eAngels Equity negotiate the terms of investment for Network Members?
In most cases, offerings conducted through eAngels Equity will be presented with predetermined pricing and participation terms. In other cases, eAngels Equity will work to negotiate terms as part of a complete round of financing.
