The Apis Health Angels Conference Investment process includes active due diligence from a team of angel investors.
The process is Application; QuarterFinals; SemiFinals; Finals Brackets. To complete the program, there will be a public presentation by the 6 finalist companies with a presentation review by the Angel Investor team.
The process will take several months with investor presentations and networking meetings. We expect the investment of up to $200K (depending on the investor pool) for Launch stage companies to make a significant difference in the rate of the company development. We know that all companies will benefit from the process and the dialogue with the investors.
The Apis Health Angel Conference event information is available on the website - http://www.apishealthangels.com
The assumption is that all companies that apply to this are prepared to participate in the workshops, due diligence, and have the business presented publicly as a part of the Final Pitch Demo Day in April 27, 2023.

HOW TO – 60-SECOND VIDEO
One of the requirements in the application process for the Apis Health Angels Conference is a 60-second video from the startup founder. Our investors are eager to see the founders who they are considering investing into. This is your opportunity to introduce yourself to the angel investors who are personally funding the winner of our Apis Health Angels Conference. Here’s a how-to.
Why? Putting a face and a voice to a company founder is essential for an interested investor. While written materials are helpful and necessary, this is your opportunity to add your personal flare. So consider this your 1-minute elevator pitch. The founder should be on camera to briefly explain your vision, your company, the challenge you are addressing, and your solution.
Where? There are no ideal places to record; you can do so at your office, a laboratory, in your clinical setting. Check that there is no overtaking noise and that shadows are kept to a minimum.
How? Recording a video clip on a smartphone or via Zoom will be suitable.
What? Capture a 1-minute video that is a promo for your company’s story. Consider a compelling stat or a story for an opening. This is a teaser, not your whole story. If you have a physical product, please feel free to display it (a picture being a thousand words).
Make sure to include:
- Your name and position •Company name
- What your product/service does •Why your company is a good investment
- Traction •Your enthusiasm
When? Upload Recording into your GUST public profile by Feb. 1, 2023.
Note: The materials should be in English please.
