Angel Investing: Matching Startup Funds with Startup Companies--The Guide for Entrepreneurs and Individual Investors by Mark Van Osnabrugge

The United States has close to three million angels, whose investments in startups exceed USD60 billion per year. Some of our most successful companies were funded by angels----companies like Ford, AOL, and Amazon.com.

It also shows would--be angels and entrepreneurs how best to find each other.To learn more about this book, visit its website.
