Harvard Business School Alumni Angels of Greater New York - Ideal Startup Investment

The Harvard Business School Alumni Angels of Greater New York (HBSAANY) is a group of New York tri-state area Harvard alumni committed to investing in early stage businesses and supporting the New York start-up ecosystem. We are a local chapter of the Harvard Business School Alumni Angels Association (hbsalumniangels.com), a global angel investing organization affiliated with Harvard University. We facilitate investment opportunities for our members in companies founded by Havard and non-Harvard alums from across all industry sectors. In the past, HBS Alumni Angels has played a diverse range of roles including “money only” passive investor, board member, CEO mentor, operating advisor and facilitator of introductions for executive and employee placements. Our involvement in your company will vary from deal to deal.

Our Screening Process

We invite companies from all sectors to submit their business plans for funding. Our geographic focus includes, but is not limited to, the Greater New York area. The key steps in the application process are as follows: 1) An application must be submitted through this website. 2) A preliminary screening is conducted by a Screening Committee sector lead. 3) Companies that make it through the preliminary screening are then asked to make a formal presentation to the full Screeening Committee during a Screening Night. Screening Nights are held monthly. 4) Companies that make it through the Screening Night are then invited to present to the HBSAANY membership at a Pitch Night. Pitch Nights are held quarterly.
