Probability of success 得到天使投资的概率

The following figures quoted from USA statistics, although China may vary this can give some guidance. 以下美国的数据可做参考，尽管中国的情况可能会有所不同。
With an Angel network members will reject about 50% of business plans as soon as they arrive. They can usually tell quickly if a deal is just not suited for angel money or if the concept is just not viable.
For the remaining 50%, members provide consultation and advice on how to prepare the plan and the pitch for the deal process. They help the entrepreneur get the presentation and the written plan up to standards that an experienced investor will expect to see.
About 50% of these deals get to go before an investment screening committee. This is a group of angels who evaluate the deal for funding. The angels make their own individual decisions on whether or not they want in on the deal.
Only about 20% of these actually receive funding. The money normally comes from several sources, including one or more of the angels in the network. One investor usually serves as the lead or "champion" investor for the deal.
On average, about 10% of the funded deals make it big, while about 45% muddle along and 45% fail.

Angel capital

The term “angel” originated in the early 1900s and referred to investors who made risky investments to support Broadway theatrical productions. Today, the term “angel” refers to high-net worth individuals, or “accredited investors”, who typically invest in and support start-up companies in their early stages of growth.

Originally angels acted alone, but it is often beneficial to them to form small structured groups as it improves their efficiency, selection and returns.

Definition of various stages of business development and corresponding financing can vary between publications and individuals. To describe one:
Seed financing is a relatively small amount of capital provided to an inventor or entrepreneur to prove a concept and to qualify for start-up capital. This may involve product development and market research as well as building a management team and developing a business plan, if the initial steps are successful.
Start-up financing is provided to companies completing product development and initial marketing. Companies may be in the process of organizing, or they may already be in business for one year or less, but have not sold their product commercially. Usually such firms will have made market studies, assembled the key management, developed a business plan and are ready to do business.
Early-stage or first-stage financing is provided to companies that have expended their initial capital (often in developing and market testing a prototype) and require funds to initiate full-scale manufacturing and sales.
Expansion financing is second and subsequent investment rounds typically financing company product and/or market expansion.

Some observers have described five categories of China angel investors:

One - is composed of the new wealth group with foreign degrees or Chinese top management in foreign businesses; both have good educational backgrounds, wide expertise, and familiarity with global technology and management development.

Two - includes heads of proprietary companies and high income individuals from certain industries. These people are agile investors with entrepreneurship experiences and have more funds for investment.

Three - usually inherit wealth from previous generations.

Four - is composed of foreigners and expatriates with a strong interest in the China market.

Five - are sponsored by the government.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will AS tell me what to invest in?

A. No, you must make your own personal decision after performing your own due diligence.

Approaches by consultants/service providers?

A. We work very hard to protect our members so that they can feel comfortable in the company of peers. We maintain a strict policy that no one should ask for a business card, but if it is offered then you may take it of course.

Judging an opportunity in other field?

A. We try to offer very diversified opportunities. As a member of Angels Shanghai, you will see a wide variety of deals. While you may not understand all of these, other members will understand those deals and can help clarify the value proposition if you are interested. Many investors only want to invest in what they know; this is also acceptable. Simply let us know your interests.

Get understanding beyond my expertise

A. If you participate in due diligence with someone who has domain expertise, over time you will feel more comfortable diversifying your portfolio of angel investments. Our members are very helpful toward each other. In addition, you may participate in a seminar or workshop.

First step to investigate?

A. Please contact the Angels Shanghai members, and, if you qualify, we will invite you as a guest to a meeting. After attending a few meetings, you can decide if you are still interested and comfortable with the network. Then, you simply fill out an application and pay your membership dues. When you do join, take your time before you invest in your first deal. Learn before you jump. Read the recommended reading, join a due diligence team, then start small on a deal that has a lot of traction.

Min amount I can invest in a deal?

A. Most deals have a minimum of 150,000RMB. The average for experienced investors is 150,000RMB to 600,000RMB with some angels making individual investments of 1,500,000RMB.

Min number of investments in a year?

A. No, but if you are not making investments (i.e. writing checks ), then we will question why you are a member and probably not renew your membership. Angels Shanghai is for active angel investors.

Remain a member if cease investment?

A. Angels Shanghai is for active angel investors.

Can I ask questions and comment?

A. We prefer you not interrupt the entrepreneur. We wait until he/she is finished. Their presentation is normally twelve minutes in length with eight minutes left for questions from the audience. After all the presentations (and the entrepreneurs have left the room), as a group we discuss the deals. Notes are taken so we may provide feedback (the good, the bad, and the ugly) to the presenter. Members and possible future members are invited to participate in this process.

Contact presenters after a meeting?

A. We prefer that you join the due diligence group. With many experienced investors coming from diverse backgrounds, you will always benefit from knowledge outside of your own expertise.
