Are you currently an AoA member?

One Member. One Vote.

This is a member-led fund, where all investment decisions are determined by member vote.

Identification

Voting

Investment

Members identify prospective companies, conduct group due diligence and write an investment recommendation.

Recommended companies are presented to the fund members – approval requires 75% Yes vs. No, with a 50% quorum.

When we invest we stay in contact with the company and help them syndicate their round with other investors.

One member, one vote – voting power is not tied to the amount invested.

Investment

Deal Flow and Investment Focus

We leverage the established Alliance of Angels screening process, reviewing hundreds of deals each year.

While most investments come through AoA, the fund may also invest in companies outside the standard AoA process.

Geographic Focus

Primarily Pacific Northwest companies (~70%), with openness to strong opportunities across the U.S. and Canada.

Sector Focus

Sector agnostic — investments are driven by the strength of the deal and founding team.

Expenses

The Innovation Fund operates with exceptionally low expenses due to its volunteer Administrative Team.

Approximately 1.5% annual expenses

No carried interest

This structure is significantly lower than the traditional

2% management fee + 20% carry

charged by most venture funds
