About Us

History and Structure

Sydney Angels is an angel investment membership organisation. Since our establishment in 2008, we have stayed true to our mission of supporting the early-stage ecosystem by running processes and events that connect our investing members with promising early-stage companies.

Sydney Angels is the Angels Investing group for all of Sydney including Western Sydney, Southern Sydney, Northern Sydney and Eastern Sydney.

Our 100 plus members have been investing in Australian start-ups since 2008.

Sydney Angels, like most Angel groups, doesn't charge fees for companies to apply for investment.

We have collaborative professional relationships with like-minded Angel groups in other geographies including Brisbane Angels, Melbourne Angels, Southern Angels, Capital Angels, Hunter Angels, Perth Angels to mention a few.

We believe that encouraging smart investment in startup companies will benefit both our members’ portfolios and Australia’s emergent innovation economy.

We see this as the ultimate win-win situation. Sydney Angels is led by an elected committee of ten volunteers who meet weekly. It is supported by an operations manager and alliance partners.

Our Committee

Sydney Angels Sidecar Fund

The Sydney Angels Sidecar Fund (SASF) is an AUD $10 million investment fund that invests 50/50 alongside Sydney Angels’ members in early-stage businesses they have selected. This greatly reduces the time it takes to close a typical investment round. The SASF can also provide funding for follow-on investment rounds. As the SASF’s investors are diverse and typically well-connected, entrepreneurs can also expect to benefit from their extended networks.

How can I access funding from the SASF?

Only companies that have received prior investment from a Sydney Angels syndicate may approach the SASF for co-investment.
