Uplift Mentorship Education Session: Inside Angel Investing: Building Relationships Before You Raise with Gina Tedesco
Virtual fireside chat with Gina Tedesco, one of New Jersey's most active angel investors, as part of the Uplift Mentorship Program's Virtual Education Series.
Gina co-founded three startups, including the biotech Astralis, before becoming an investor. Today she leads the NJ chapter of Golden Seeds, the national angel network that has invested over $200 million in women-led companies, runs Amala Ventures, sits on the board of Jumpstart NJ Angel Network, and has taught entrepreneurship at Fairleigh Dickinson University since 2005.
In "Inside Angel Investing: Building Relationships Before You Raise," Gina joins for a candid conversation on what angels actually look for, how to build investor relationships before you need the money, and the realities founders face when raising, especially women and minority founders.
We'll open it up for live Q&A in the final 5-10 minutes, so bring your questions.
