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.

So helpful! Thanks for building this and congrats on the launch 🚀
Massive opportunity in building a LinkedIn for the investing world!
As a founder, would I also be able to create a profile and connect with top BAs?
And love the investor database, I can't wait to use it!
Hi Julien! This is an amazing support for founders. I wonder if such a tool will result in investors getting bombarded with even more messages, which could impact their decision-making. Maybe there should be some sort of screener for startups before they get the info. Just thinking out loud.
You're 100% right @anastasiia_stepko!
This type of feature is definitely on our roadmap to continue building the product :)
Keep them coming, I love great feedback like that!
Hi @golas , great question!
The end product contains between 50 and 100 top Business Angels (BAs) per country.
The idea was to have a mix of “veterans” and promising new BAs, as well as a mix of men and women BAs.
But how did we get there?
We started with existing lists, which gave us a few thousand names, as well as reviewing our user base.
We have near 20k users, mostly investors, on the Roundtable platform.
We then narrowed them down with the help of a few top angels from our network in each target country.
What we basically asked them was : “who would you follow without thinking if they invited you to a deal?”
That’s why we’ve only included in the list countries where we have a geographical footprint.
Finally, we tried to contact everyone to check if they were still actively investing at the moment.
This is why some household names may be missing: they told us they didn’t want to be listed, or were not currently investing.
Hope this helps!

@julien_fissette - great job creating Roundtable. It's so challenging for startups to find investors, particularly angel investors, so what you've created is certainly welcome!
