What People Are Saying

“For me, investing in young cleantech companies is the intersection of my hopes for the world I’ll leave my children, my personal interest in alternative energy and my desire to make a good return on my capital. Northwest Energy Angels provides quality deal flow in this exciting new space. And the value of shared due diligence for understanding the risks in a deal can’t be overstated. I’ve found that NW Energy Angel members consistently bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to the process and willingly share their insight.”

  • Quality deal flow (screened to maintain our high standards) through presentations from approximately 20 of the best early-stage cleantech companies, primarily from the Pacific NW, during 6 luncheon meetings per year. The best cleantech start-ups come to NWEA first because we are the most experienced cleantech angel investors in the Pacific NW.
  • Shared due diligence, which reduces the effort needed by any one individual and helps manage risk through the application of multiple skill and experience sets to a common deal.

This cooperative environment also provides a supportive learning experience for new angel investors
