    Description:

    Alumni Ventures Group (AVG) is a different type of venture capital firm. Designed for individual investors, we make this key asset class available to millions of individuals who previously haven't had access to a high-quality, diversified venture portfolio. The firm has successful annual funds for alums at Dartmouth, Harvard, Yale, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania -- intend to add a new school once a quarter. Launch Angels alumni funds include: Green D Ventures (for Dartmouth Alumni), Purple Arch Ventures (for Northwestern Alumni), Calvert Crossland Ventures (for Maryland Alumni), The Yard Ventures (for Harvard Alums), Old Nassau Ventures (for Princeton Alumni), Domer Ventures (for Notre Dame Alumni), Blue Ivy Ventures (for Yale Alumni), Chestnut Street Ventures (for Penn Alumni), Bascom Ventures (for University of Wisconsin Alumni), Castor Ventures (for MIT Alumni), and the Farm Ventures (for Stanford Alumni). Launch Angels main goal is to make money for investors by pooling alumni resources together. The firm's funds are open to accredited alumni investors (as defined by the SEC), as well as faculty and others with a strong connection to the school. Accepted investments are from $25,000 to $500,000 in their annual funds, however Launch Angels also offers co-investment opportunities with lower minimums. The firm has raised $900M+ total capital.
