ACCESS FOR ALL ANGELS

Founded by an angel investor, Playfair has a long history of team members who cut their investing teeth as angels before becoming full time investors.

We have also partnered with angels on almost all of our investments, recognising the significant contribution they make to startup success.

Our growing angel community is open to active angel investors in Europe and we are particularly keen to work with younger angels as they build their investing experience and angels from underrepresented backgrounds.

Read more about what you can expect as a member of our community and how to contribute in this blog post.

AMAs with Playfair - Thursday 5th October '23

Our first AMA will be held on 5th October and is open to any active angels.

Just register to join our community by the end of September and we’ll ensure you receive an invite.

The AMA will be led by Chris and Henrik who invested as angels and via crowdfunding before they joined Playfair.
