ATA Screening Criteria
The Atlanta Technology Angels (ATA) Screening Committee meets once a
month to evaluate investment opportunities in companies which their
business plans have been reviewed by the committee. Each company presents
to the committee for 30-45 minutes. Following this meeting, the selected
companies will present to the entire ATA group.
The entire ATA group meets formally once a month to visit with and
evaluate these selected companies. If the interest in the investment
opportunity is high, the company and ATA will move into the due diligence,
which can facilitate an investment in the company. ATA, as a group will
invest between $250,000 and $750,000 in any one selected company.
Send one to these guys first. |

Is any information available about who they are? You don't want to, for example, pitch your hot start up idea to the guy that owns your competitor, nor do you want to walk into a meeting and find your boss at your present day job on the other side of the table. |

I know. Its tough. I don't know how to find out who they are. Generally, that kind of thing happens all the time with VCs. They say to go with a personal introduction, but I'm not sure that would do much to prevent you from being screwed. I guess the key is that you be the two people most capable of implementing the ideas in your plan. They're not just investing in your idea, they're investing in you. |
