For Investors

You have a lot of choices to make when deciding where to invest. ATA Members invest selectively in deals that interest them, and can choose between a sizable direct allocation with a company, vs. a small allocation via the ATA Serles LLC, which is our economical sidecar co-investment vehicle. We’ll help you find the right opportunities.

Atlanta Technology Angels is a member-led organization, working to unite the Southeast early-stage investment ecosystem. We’re looking for new members ready to be active investors – of money, time, and mentoring. If that’s you, fill out the application below. We’ll be back in touch soon to discuss next steps. In the meantime, come visit one of our monthly meetings.
