San Rafael, California--(Newsfile Corp. - May 17, 2024) - Today the Harvard Business School Alumni Angels (HBSAA) announced their upcoming Angel Investing Bootcamp to be held on June 5: Angel Investing - Lessons from the Experts.

Follow-on Investments, Dilution & Exits
Sameera Bazaz, co-chair of the Bootcamp and President of the Washington DC chapter said: "The program will provide unique insight into best practices for building your angel portfolio and the opportunity for attendees to network with fellow angels and presenters."
Alexa McCulloch, co-chair of the Bootcamp and co-chair of the Southern California chapter said: "This is the 7th time we've run a Bootcamp and each time we try to improve the experience for the attendees. This Bootcamp will have something for both investors and entrepreneurs at every level."
The presentations are taught by veteran investors and entrepreneurs who have built and funded companies of their own in a long list of industries from technology to consumer products to healthcare. The interactive sessions offer the ability for attendees to ask questions directly to the experts. The virtual Bootcamp environment also has breaks for networking among attendees and presenters.
