Once you decide to raise funds, you’ll spend weeks looking for Business Angels.
Now with Investor Profiles, you can directly see if you fit their investment thesis.
Even better, we’ve created a list of top BAs on Folk, the CRM we used to raise our own seed.
👋 Hi founders and makers!
With Roundtable, we’re building the marketplace and financial infrastructure to help structure investments in startups.
With more than 300M€ of startup investments going through the platform in 2 years, we think we’re decently connected to Business Angels.
And yet, when we raised our seed round last year, we spent ages finding BAs, curating them, finding that some were not investing at the time, etc.
We ended up raising 3M€ with amazing BAs which we love dearly <3, but I can assure you we had better things to do like, you know, running our business.
That’s why we’ve:
1️⃣ built Investor Profiles allowing our users to showcase their investment thesis, portfolio of investment, and explain what they look for in startups,
2️⃣ aggregated the top profiles in an Investor Database, and
3️⃣ partnered with our friends at Folk to host it. They’ve built a great CRM which we used for our own seed round.
FYI, we’ve talked to and excluded several Business Angels who told us they were not currently investing.
If there’s a household name you cannot find here, it may be because they opted out for now.
👉 Founders, have a look, and I hope you’ll save time preparing your next round! It’s your most precious asset 🙂
👉 Investors, if you’re interested in being listed: create your Profile page and contact us!
*⭐️ This database is of course biased towards our existing user base. If there is a country you would like us to research and add, don’t hesitate to share it in the comments!*

@julien_fissette Congratulations on the launch! Wishing you a journey full of achievements and success. What’s one piece of advice you’d give to other creators?

Hi Julien and Roundtable Team,
I came across your platform and the Investor Database initiative, and I'm impressed! It sounds like a valuable tool for both founders and business angels (BAs) to connect and streamline the seed funding process.
I'd love to learn more about how I could potentially contribute to your development. Here are some initial thoughts:
- I see the value of addressing user feedback on expanding the investor base geographically. Perhaps there are ways to leverage data or partnerships to facilitate targeted research and outreach to BAs in specific countries.
- Enhancing the database with filtering and matching functionalities could further streamline connections based on investment thesis, industry focus, and other criteria.
I'm eager to discuss these ideas further and see if there's a potential collaboration opportunity. In the meantime, I'll be sure to check out the Investor Profile creation process and explore the database further.
Thanks,
Max
Hi @kjosephabraham, to take the time to prepare it well! The product, the assets, explain to your community how they can help you on D Day, all that takes a lot of time and effort. But definitely worth it!

This is really helpful!!! I like how it gathers those vital resources for people on both sides.
Congratulations on your launch!
The concept it really cool. Forgive my ignorance, but would I need to be incorporated in France or Luxembourg to sign up and use it as a founder? Also what is the average raise for people in this position?
Great product! Do you streamline SPV admin creation with the French greffe?
It's a nightmare to incorporate and modify French entities? It can save me a lot of time creating SC and SAS in France.
@alexis_guinebretiere Yeah but that changes with the winds over time. It might be hard to track, but with crunchbase etc it's possible. Ive seen VC platforms track this. It's one of the strongest indicators TBH. Okay this VC invested 8 times in the last 2 months. Great cadence. Worth approaching etc. If a VC did only 2 invests in the last year. Then maybe not spend too much time etc.
