You have 15 minutes to earn $500,000. Go. – Missoula Economic Partnership

If you had to tell the story of your company and why it’s worth investing in — in 15 minutes with 12 clear, concise slides — what would that story be? That’s the question put before many entrepreneurs today, in part because angel Investing has exploded over the past decade. Once an investment strategy deployed only by the very wealthy, it’s now trickled down into mainstream America — and into Montana.

In essence, angel investors provide capital to entrepreneurs, startups and stage-two companies in return for equity. Most are looking for a financial return, of course, but they also enjoy using their funds to help make people’s dreams a reality; to promote their own areas of interest, such as sustainability; and to stay connected to the business world.
