Speaking of his experience with Valhalla Angel 101, Mark Montemurro explained: “As an ‘intermediate experienced’ angel investor, the Angel 101 training provided by Valhalla Angels was very helpful.
“The information and stories shared over the two days helped to validate some of my own experience but also provided useful market context plus new tactics to guide me in evaluating start-ups,” Mark concluded.
Valhalla Private Capital is a firm of entrepreneurs who became investors. We like to share our experiences, have fun, and bring others into the fold.
In order to achieve this, Valhalla actively works with local business organizations, angel groups, seed funds, and early-stage VC Funds to educate these potential investors and introduce them to the local entrepreneurs building the future.

Truly, these sessions are for anyone building and growing their business, actively seeking capital or looking to better understand. You may want to attend as a larger organisation looking for funding from a project or as an NGO with capital assets and infrastructure projects.
A pitch night and networking event will also be happening on December 1st in conjunction with this event where participants that went through the 2-day base camp will have the opportunity to pitch to investors, experts, and the community.
