Investment thesis
St Andrews Angels is an independent alumni-run angel group linking entrepreneurship, angel investing and the University of St Andrews alumni community. Members—drawn from venture capital, private equity, real estate, law and finance—invest equity into early-stage companies that are either founded by alumni or have a direct connection to the university. Since launching in 2019 the group's members have invested over £130,000 of equity, and the network aims to grow into a substantial community connecting students and alumni with investors, mentors and advisors.
