Growing a purposeful venture is a challenging journey for an entrepreneur and having an angel support with knowledge and money can be key for success. This Henley Business School and Henley Business Angels event is bringing together a fantastic group of people to share and learn with peers.

The 20-minute panel will be chaired by Andrew Gaule, Chair of the Business and Technology SIG, and Angel Investor will facilitate a panel which represents a mix of technology, business models and diversity from the Henley Business Angels with speakers include:

  • Tim Brownstone, Founder and CEO of Kymira
  • Rebecca Morter, Founder and CEO of Lone Design Club
  • Denis Bidinost, Angel Investor

A 40-min group discussion will then occur when all the attendees have an opportunity to join a group to share perspectives and questions related to a range of topics. Each circle of chairs, of around 10 people, will be facilitated by an Entrepreneur, Angel or Partner.

The themes of these groups will include:

  • Building the founding and entrepreneurial team
  • Running team and board meetings
  • Due diligence for angel investing
  • SEIS and EIS application
