As we continue building momentum around the theme of scaling entrepreneurship across our shared research community, Atlantic Futures, thanks to our partners AwakenHub & Awaken Angels, are delighted to invite you to a unique opportunity to explore one of the most dynamic forces shaping venture growth today: angel investing.
We warmly welcome our researchers (and indeed any research peers or academics interested in this topic) to join the upcoming Angel Investing Masterclass—a 90-minute interactive session, and especially relevant for academic researchers whose work intersects with start-up ecosystems, innovation policy, or entrepreneurial finance.
Why this masterclass?
Angel investing is far more than early capital, it’s a strategic lever for innovation, growth, and impact. This session offers practical insights that complement and enrich your academic research, bringing the theory of venture scaling into real-world focus.
You’ll gain:
- A Research-Informed Perspective on the role of angel investors in startup development.
- Practical Insights into how investment decisions are made in uncertain, high-growth environments.
- Strategies for building diversified portfolios with both financial and societal impact.
- Interactive Discussion & Networking with experienced investors and a community of like-minded women.
Programme Details:
- 📅 Date & Time: Monday 16th June 2pm to 3.30pm
- 💻 Format: 90-minute online session (Zoom)
- 💡 Cost: Free to attend
- 🤝 Supported by: InterTradeIreland through the Shared Island Fund, with support from Invest Northern Ireland and Enterprise Ireland.
Clare McGee, CEO of AwakenHub adds:
AwakenHub and AwakenAngels would like to express our sincere thanks to Atlantic Futures for their support in bringing this opportunity to their researchers.
We hope you’ll consider attending this session—not only to expand your understanding of early-stage investment, but also to explore how your research and expertise can contribute to shaping this evolving landscape.
