Fostering an inclusive angel ecosystem

At the forefront of our mission, we are committed to championing inclusivity and diversity within the angel investment ecosystem

Diversity & Inclusion

Diverse investor networks and teams bring verified life experiences, cultural perspectives, and problem-solving approaches. This leads to more creative solutions and better risk management.

Founding teams and investors who reflect diverse backgrounds can spot underserved markets and customer needs that homogenous teams might overlook.

“Diversity among angel investors and founders fuels innovation and broadens perspectives resulting in improved outcomes. HBAN is building a vibrant, inclusive, and forward-thinking investment community.”

Networking Events, Workshops & Education & Inclusion

Throughout the year, we will organise workshops, events, training and resources aimed at promoting diversity and inclusion in angel investing, as well as supporting the growth of underrepresented groups in our ecosystem. Stay tuned to our newsletter for more information.
