June PubTalk: Angel Investors: What Makes a Startup Investable?

Understanding how angel investors evaluate potential investments is crucial for entrepreneurs seeking funding and for anyone interested in the investment process.

Oregon Entrepreneurs Network (OEN) and IMS Capital Management are partnering on the June PubTalk where we will explore the key criteria that investors use when deciding whether or not to fund a startup. This interactive conversation on Wednesday, June 11th will provide valuable insights into the methods, strategies, and factors angel investors prioritize, from assessing a business idea to analyzing the market opportunity.

Our panel of angel investors will share their experiences and perspectives on what makes a startup attractive for investment. Attendees will learn about the importance of a strong founding team, the role of innovation and scalability in a business model, and how financial health and projections impact an investor's decision-making. The session will also cover how investors assess risk, determine startup valuations, and identify red flags that could derail a potential deal.

This event is an excellent opportunity for entrepreneurs to gain clarity on what angel investors are looking for and how they evaluate a business. Whether you're seeking funding or just looking to understand the process better, this session will give you the knowledge and tools to navigate the angel investment landscape successfully. Don't miss out on this chance to learn directly from seasoned investors and position your business for success.
