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 renewable energy and my desire to make a good return on capital. Northwest Energy Angels provides quality deal flow in this growing space. And the value of shared due diligence for understanding the risks can’t be overstated. I’ve found that NW Energy Angel members consistently bring rare domain expertise and a wealth of experience to the table and willingly share their insights.”
