  How does someone learn how to be a successful Angel Investor?

Without such training, new investors might spend years and over $250,000 to learn effective investment strategies on their own. Through hands-on exercises and mentorship from experienced investors, Angel Accelerator offers significant benefits including a promising return on investment, potential tax advantages, insights into cutting-edge innovation, and opportunities to connect with fascinating individuals.

  Join the Fall 2025 Cohort!

  Beginning with this introduction session, cohort members will dive into the Angel Accelerator program through a combination of asynchronous learning, mastermind sessions, RVC Investor Forums, and virtual office hours. The Angel Accelerator Curriculum is designed to span 10 weeks with 2-5 hours of participation per week. The program can be completed entirely remote, however, there are multiple opportunities to engage in person!
