The Rochester Angel Network is a private group of accredited investors in the Greater Rochester, NY Region with an interest in investing in seed and early stage startup companies. Founded in 2005, the group meets monthly to listen to presentations by one or two selected entrepreneurs, and is actively seeking applications from both entrepreneurs who are seeking funding, as well as investors interested in becoming a member of the Network. Typical attributes of a company that would be of interest to the Rochester Angel Network include those with high-growth potential (e.g., tens of millions of dollars in revenue or more), a national or international customer base, a completed business plan, a reasonable exit strategy within 4-7 years of investment (i.e., a merger/ acquisition or IPO), and seeking investment typically in the $250K - $2M range. The Rochester Angel Network is not a venture fund, but rather a network that facilitates the introduction of entrepreneurs to potential investors through presentations and other mechanisms. The group currently has a consortium of more than 30 investors, who have funded 18 companies with more than $10M.
