First Check Breakfast

​First Check Breakfast: Angel Investing at the Ground Floor What Angel Groups Actually Do, How to Plug In & Why it Matters April 30 | Breakfast Included

​You've been thinking about angel investing. Maybe you've done a little research, talked to a few people, and wondered if now is the right time. This is the room for you.

​First Check Breakfast is a quarterly gathering for people who are ready to take their first real step into the world of early-stage investing — not by writing a massive check, but by getting educated, building relationships, and understanding how it all works.

​At this session, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how angel groups actually operate — how deals are sourced, evaluated, and funded, and how new investors can participate alongside more experienced angels from day one. No prior experience required.

​We'll also talk about why Sacramento is at a pivotal moment. With Aggie Square coming online and a growing wave of startups in health, life sciences, and tech emerging from our region's universities and research institutions, local angel participation has never mattered more. Without engaged local investors, the best ideas launched here risk moving elsewhere for capital. You can be part of changing that.

​Join the NorCal AngelCon team and other angel groups in the Sacramento region — experienced voices from the local investment community — for an honest, accessible conversation over breakfast.

​Whether you're exploring your first investment or simply want to understand how the ecosystem works, this is your on-ramp.
