BitAngels - Magic Island Demo Day
We are officially bringing BitAngels to LATAM and Floripa 🇧🇷 during the Magic Island pop-up city!
BitAngels is the world's first and largest angel investor network focused exclusively on blockchain and cryptocurrency startups. Founded in 2013, it was the brainchild of industry leaders Michael Terpin (the "Godfather of Crypto" who launched Ethereum and Tether) and David Johnston (who pioneered smart contracts), along with core contributors like Roc Zacharias (who incubated Polygon) and many others, aimed at accelerating global blockchain adoption by connecting entrepreneurs with investors.
Our very first Demo Day featuring top LATAM founders will take place on August 28th at Founder Haus as a side event of the Magic Island pop-up city, Investor Week, and Startup Summit.
Join BitAngels for a high energy Demo Day during Magic Island and Investor Week.

---- The people behind it ----
Magic Island is a month-long popup city in Florianópolis, Brazil. Every August, founders, builders, and investors land on the island for hackathons, dinners, meetups, and open days. The Magic Island app keeps your map, calendar, and pass together, so you never miss a moment of magic.
Floripa Institute of Technology [FiT] is a non-profit institution working across education, advocacy, and research to make Florianópolis a global hub for technology and entrepreneurship, organized into three coordinated pillars that reinforce one another.
Founder Haus Beach Club is a private club for founders who build and builders who found. As part of the Founder Village infrastructure, developed and co-owned by founders for founders, we are transforming the neighborhood of Jurerê Internacional into the village we want to live in, share with like-minded families, and co-own as a community.
