UNDERSTANDING OUR INVESTMENT PROCESS

SCREENING & SELECTION

Once you have submitted your application, we will review it and submit it to the Investment Committee for initial screening and selection.

If a majority of the Investment Committee votes to invite the company to pitch, we will inform you of this decision and you and your team will be invited to attend the next JK Angel Investors pitch session.

PITCHING & DECISION

All companies selected to pitch to JK Angel Investors will be invited to attend a pitch sessions. Each pitch session will involve pitches by three or four companies. Each team will be given 20 minutes to present which will be followed by 10 minutes of Q&A with members of the Investment Committee.

Following all the company presentations, all the pitching teams will be asked to leave the room and the Investment Committee will deliberate and try to reach consensus.

The Investment Committee may decide to invest in a company or to reject its application during this deliberation session. Alternatively, the Investment Committee may decide to undertake further discussion with the company or to conduct further diligence before reaching a final decision.

Any company pitching to JK Angel Investors will be informed of the decision of the Investment Committee within 24 hours of pitching.

A decision to invest in a company, whether taken at the pitch session or subsequently, requires two-thirds of those investment committee members in attendance at the relevant pitch session to vote in favour of the investment.

DUE DILIGENCE & CLOSING

If the Investment Committee has decided to conduct further diligence or to invest in your company, a team will be tasked with taking those matters forward.

The same will apply to closing documentation.

All we ask is that you please ensure you respond to all requests in a comprehensive and timely manner.
