Investors' Circle is Going Beyond The Pitch!

NEWS & UPDATES FROM INVESTORS' CIRCLE

Last year, the IC network invested over $12MM and was ranked the 7th most active angel network by the HALO Report. Our investment momentum comes thanks to our active membership, engagement with high-quality entrepreneurs, and growing local network initiative -- led by our first local network in Philadelphia. IC Philadelphia members have invested over $1.5MM, pledged an additional $500K to support locally-incubated impact enterprises, and paved the way for new local networks. Next up: San Francisco and New York City!
It's not just our local network strategy that is expanding to better serve our growing network. We've listened to the market and are ready share a sneak peak of IC events that create more opportunities for investors and entrepreneurs to engage around impact. We look forward to seeing you around the country in 2013 and 2014.
