The sources do not describe how applications are reviewed or the assessment timeline. Typically, angel networks review pitch decks and founder backgrounds, then contact selected applicants within 2–4 weeks for interviews. You should expect follow-up questions about your MVP, market validation, and use of funds before any investment decision.
What reviewers look for
The programme requires startups less than 5 years old. If your company exceeds this, you do not meet the eligibility criteria.
No. An MVP or prototype is sufficient. The network funds seed-stage companies, not ideas without any working version.
No. The requirement is a team of at least two founders. Solo founders are not eligible.
The programme operates on a rolling basis, meaning there is no fixed closing date. You can apply when ready, but earlier submission may improve your chances if the fund has a finite allocation.
The sources do not specify response timelines. You should expect the network to review your pitch deck and contact you if they wish to proceed to an interview or due diligence stage.
