INVESTMENT FUND SUPPORTING STARTUPS LVIV TECH ANGELS COULD SIGN FIRST INVESTMENT DEALS

30 September , 2019  

Lviv Tech Angels, an investment fund supporting startups, has 10 potential investors and could sign the first deal with a startup at the early stage by the end of 2019, President of Lviv Tech Angels Michael Puzrakov has said.
“At the moment there are ten members of this club, ten potential investors. Now we are in search of a manager who would take up organizational work. When we hire a manager we will select startups,” Puzrakov told Interfax-Ukraine on the sidelines of the Lviv IT Arena forum.
According to him, the first investment of the fund is possible before the end of this year, although the fund does not have a specific plan.
Angels’ money (investing in a startup at an early stage in exchange for a company share) in startups comes from IT, from other successful startups, that is, those who have brought their companies to a profitable level and have free funds. They can evaluate the quality and prospects of startups and help them,” Puzrakov said.
Lviv Tech Angels investment fund was launched in June this year as part of Lviv IT Cluster, the union of IT companies.
