When I was in Anchorage last month, I had dinner one night with a group of people interested in starting an angel group. The story of that evening is recounted in this month’s issue of the Alaska Journal of Commerce.
I especially enjoy how Tim Pearson ends the article:
“Alaska angels have a golden history. Miners running for the 1899 gold fields were backed by investors who put up grubstakes – money for food and equipment – in return for shares in a claim. More than a century later, angel investing still comes down to a roll of the dice: Who do you back? And will they be lucky?”
