Angel Investment as an Asset class with Nancy Lala

The popularity of Angel investing has been growing in Canada for the last several years. So much so that Angel investments are becoming an alternative investment class for many accredited investors. As with any asset class, and especially with assets as risky and rewarding as start-up, it is important for investors to understand the asset class and how it can potentially fit into their overall portfolio. This session, led by Nancy Lala, will cover several aspects of Angel investing including:

• What are angel investments?
• How angel investments differ from traditional investments?
• The potential for returns both financial and social as well as strategies to include these investments into your current portfolio
