Women’s Angel Event

May 4, 2022 @ 4:30 pm - 7:30 pm EDT

Join Angel One on May 4th for this panel to learn more about becoming an angel investor, accompanied by food, drinks, and networking.

Angel One and Haltech are inviting all women interested in learning about angel investing to join us. Women make up 51% of Canada’s population, yet only 24% of the angel group members in Canada are women.

More women are needed to be investors in early-stage companies, influential role models and mentors. And whether you are interested in supporting female founders or you have broader interests in the start-up ecosystem, you will meet like-minded women at this highly inclusive event. Join us and add your voice to the conversation.
