Business Angels Explained
Business Angels are private investors or syndicated groups providing equity funding for business opportunities. At Strategy Corporate Finance, we work in conjunction with the largest Business Angels network in Europe because:
- Their strength is in raising investment capital between £200,000 and £5 million.
- This range of Business Angel investment is regarded as the most difficult to attain.
- There are no preferences on sector and most Business Angels investors have a very wide range of interests.
- Experienced Business Angels can offer skills, contacts and advice to help your business.

Business Angels Fees
Fees are mainly success based, with a percentage in cash and option shares, based on the amount of Business Angel funding that is introduced. There is a modest project management fee to reflect the expenses and work required to prepare, authorise and market the proposition.
Are You Interested in Raising Business Angel Funding?
This is where our extensive experience in private investors and venture capital fund raising comes into its own.
- We offer a FREE review of your business plan, provided you are looking for more than £200,000.
- Feedback from the review will then be discussed with you before you meet with our management team.
- Where it is believed that the right Business Angels can be found among the 1500+ contacts on the Investor Register, we give advice on the business plan and deal structure.
- When there is an investment proposal, sufficiently attractive for both the client and the Business Angel investors, the business will be marketed.
- Clients are marketed through direct personal contact with investors.
We provide project management to completion, including:
- Business Angel investor negotiations
- Advice on the legal formalities
- Everything that needs to be done to ensure a satisfactory conclusion
The entire private investor and contact base of over 6000 is regularly mailed a 'Stop Press'. Investor Fairs are also held on a regular basis where clients can meet directly with private investors (Business Angels).
