Angel Squad, a platform aimed at diversifying angel investing, has reached a milestone of 2,000 members. Founded three years ago by Brian Nicks, the initiative encourages participation from individuals across various professions, including doctors, lawyers, and artists, rather than limiting its focus to the tech sector. Supporters emphasize the importance of angel investors in fostering startup ecosystems through small investments and mentorship. The community aims to make angel investing more accessible, with advocates noting that it has become easier than ever for new investors to get involved. The initiative's approach has garnered attention, particularly in light of recent discussions around the rise of millennial women in angel investing, highlighting the evolving landscape of startup funding.
