Bill Morrow, founder of the Angels Den based in the UK connects startups with investors from around the world everyday. The Angels Den can help great startups get funding no matter what country they are in. This is BIG. So, basically, the startup completes the Angels Den’s business plan, pays approx. $800, and starts connecting with investors. Bill says they are busier now than ever and that investors *need* a place to invest their money versus collecting next to nothing with respect to interest income from banks.

The process of finding business funding doesn’t have to be as complicated as it’s made out to be. All that most people searching for investment need is a little divine inspiration from an Angel to provide the funding needed to help their businesses grow and flourish.
TV programmes like Dragon’s Den have promoted the concept recently, but it doesn’t have to hurt! We’re not sadists. The process is painless and you will not be mauled by Dragons or made to feel small by stuffy bank managers. We will guide you through a simple and jargon-free online process that puts your idea in front of a wealth of experienced successful business people in complete confidence. There is no red tape and no pressure. Angels Den is not authorised to and does not offer investment advice or make any recommendation regarding investment. Our structured formats and powerful search criteria enable a potential investor to find out exactly what they need to know quickly and accurately. Everyone gets a fair chance and the decision is up to the Angel.

Bill, it’s all about the shirt baby!
