About Us

History and Structure

Sydney Angels is an angel investor membership organisation. A NSW-incorporated association since our establishment in 2008, we have remained 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. Our defining feature is our team-based investment process.

Sydney Angels is the angel 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.

Like most angel groups, Sydney Angels does not charge companies a fee to apply for investment, nor do we charge a fee or take carry on members’ investments.

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 facilitating smart investment in startup companies will benefit both our members’ portfolios and Australia.

Sydney Angels is led by an elected committee of ten volunteers who meet weekly. It is supported by an operations manager, investment process manager, and alliance partners.

We came together because we believed it was important for our nation’s future to create a self-sustaining angel investment group in Sydney.

 

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.
