About this Event
COME BE AN ANGEL: ANGEL INVESTING 101In-Person Led by Christine Sullivan and Allison Malloy3 Wednesdays: 9/22, 9/29, 10/6

Have you ever thought that you’d like to help early stage companies grow but you don’t know enough about the process? Or that you’d like to be part of an angel network but you don’t know where to start?

Come join the angel conversation that we’re starting at HAYVN in September. HAYVN is partnering with Tidal River, a new CT-based group of women investors who will be leading the conversation about what you need to know to evaluate early stage/seed investment opportunities. The topics will include pitch evaluation, due diligence, valuation, financials and term sheets. You’ll learn the critical questions to ask entrepreneurs and you’ll get some practice with real women with innovative ideas that they’re currently pitching.


What you'll learn:

Week 1 - The Investor Pitch

Week 2 - Investment Process/Data Room/Due Diligence

Week 3 - Negotiating a Term Sheet

Prior to joining CTSBDC, Christine worked in investment banking for nearly 20 years where she focused on technology and food and beverage companies.

With a passion for organic and natural food, Christine spent two years working for Revolution Foods, a b-corp focused on providing healthy school lunches to schools in low income communities. Her interest in healthy food and innovative food business ideas continues and she loves experiencing the exciting Connecticut foodie scene!
