E118: The Central Texas Angel Network in Austin has been a focus for Angels there since 2006.
Gary Forni is the new Chair of CTAN and brings his own perspective and some innovation to the group. We discuss CTAN's deal flow, their approach to diligence, their industry agnostic approach and their impressive investment results.
Both Angels and Entrepreneurs will be interested in CTAN's unique approach to incentivizing deal flow by offering a 'Start-Up Success Package' of benefits just for making it through screening, regardless of whether they receive funding. They have an influential and experienced membership that brings real startup investing talent to the table for the benefit of both Founders and Angels. (recorded 5/2/24)
