Ask HN: Where to find angel investors for funding below 100k?
Before you ask, yes I tried YC. Didn't get in. Not to knock yc in any way, but despite their name I consider them a (benevolent) VC firm. Their conditions and the recent spike in highly accomplished founders with competitive entries means that they sponsor companies that would get VC funding anyway.
I am aware the traditional sources of this kind of money is the three F's but I think tech community could also be an untapped resource.
Looking for true angels prepared to put up 25k to 100k for negotiable equity in a very early stage company. My needs are mundane, office space, utility bills, internet etc
I'm based in Lagos, Nigeria but I'm sure there are other would-be founders on HN in the same situation from other countries.
