Lead Angels is India’s first privately owned angel network founded by a team of three originally from IIT Bombay in 2014 with the aim of improving early stage investment outcomes. The team accomplishes this by providing professional assistance to investor-members in company evaluation and the portfolio companies in their operations.
Our members are successful entrepreneurs and professionals across diverse sectors who wish to identify and support high potential entrepreneurs. They are supported by a team of experienced and qualified executives who are passionate about their work for both entrepreneurs and investors.
The network has grown rapidly and currently has chapters in Mumbai, New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Hyderabad. The network also has members outside these locations both in India and abroad who have access to conference calls, videos and other collaterals.
Support to our investee companies is a key element of our services in building a win-win-win partnership between the team, entrepreneurs and investors.
Lead Angels is pleased to annouce that our colleague Sushanto Mitra has been appointed to the Granting Committee of Mozilla Open Source Support Program for India. The program will provide financial grants to open source projects in India.
