Submit a Business Plan

The AngelVineVC Screening Committee is interested in receiving business plan submissions from entrepreneurs in all fields, including clean tech, alternative energy, software, nanotechnology, semiconductor, wireless, data storage, biotechnology, medical, and other emerging technologies.  Our investing sweet spot is between $250,000 and $1,500,000, in an early-stage company that would welcome the active involvement of an experienced and well-connected angel investor.

While most of the businesses that the Screening Committee reviews are referred to AngelVineVC by AngelVineVC members, we will accept submissions directly from entrepreneurs.

Because our screening committee is comprised of busy angel investors and venture capital professionals, in order to receive serious consideration an entrepreneur should provide a 10-15 page written submission (basically an expanded executive summary of a business plan and/or a clear slide deck) that demonstrates expertise within the company’s market and industry, as well as experience in general business matters, and should include information with respect to the following, where applicable:
