Building a thriving angel group takes more than sourcing great deals—it requires a strategic focus on recruitment, engagement, and retention of investor members. In this collaborative session, we’ll explore how leading angel groups are successfully activating their members and sustaining long-term involvement.
Through real-world examples and interactive discussion, we’ll dig into what it takes to design impactful recruitment experiences, foster consistent participation, and deliver ongoing value that keeps members engaged. Most importantly, we’ll tap into the collective wisdom of attendees to crowdsource ideas, share what’s working (and what’s not), and co-create a set of practical takeaways you can immediately apply to your own group.
Key takeaways will include:
- Proven approaches to onboarding that set the foundation for active membership
- Engagement tactics tailored to different investor personas and participation levels
- Retention strategies that reinforce value, community, and long-term involvement
- Actionable insights gathered directly from attendees for peer-tested solutions
Whether you’re launching a new group or evolving an established one, join us to discover and contribute to a toolkit of strategies that will help you lead your angel network with intention and impact
