Gathering of Angels (GOA)

The Gathering of Angels is a monthly meeting of private, high net-worth investors, venture capitalists and merchant bankers. Founded in Santa Fe in 1996 but now based in Atlanta, The Gathering of Angels has found seed and early stage capital for over 380 young entrepreneurial companies from 20K to 12.5M. Group meetings, hosted by Tarby Bryant, is an Angel Investor Forum where six companies present with PowerPoint for 20 minutes each followed by 2-5 minutes of Questions & Answers. Accredited Angel Investors, VCs and Investment Bankers receive complementary admission to the group's events. Angel Investor crowds are normally 40-50 investors. Each GOA presenter pays a $2,500 presentation fee with no % of angel capital raised. Included in the GOA presentation fee is 3 hours of virtual coaching, mentoring and consulting from GOA CEO Tarby Bryant to insure that each presentation is clear, concise and defensible. GOA helped 17 young companies find capital in 2006 and had 10 success stories in 2007.
