Angel investing is dead.*
Dead Angels is a monthly drinkup in San Francisco for angel investors: the same people who write small checks into companies that, statistically, are also going to die.
- What’s this about angel investing being dead?
- There’s some talk about the death of angel investing, even as angels are sought out more than ever. The “Dead Angels” part is a bit about how we’re not actually dead. See, it’s humorous.
- Who can come?
- Active angel investors, and anyone interested in becoming one. No founders or VCs. Sorry, you have your own meetups, you dorks.
- Are we going to synergize our dealflow or something?
- No. No presentations, no pitch competitions. It’s just talking with other like-minded humans. Drop by; you’ll enjoy it.
- Is this a drinking thing?
- Of course not! It’s never been easier to go to the bar and select from delicious NA choices. The bar part is just to help get people to congregate somewhere.
- Who’s behind this?

- Zach Holman GitHub, GitLab, invested in hundreds of startups.
- Ashley Smith GitLab, GitHub, invested in hundreds of startups.
