Company Launches
As an angel investor, if you have more than a handful of startups in your portfolio - staying on top of how each company has been performing through their investment updates is hard as it is difficult to remember their KPIs and goals from their past investment updates. At VentureInsights, we understand the value of your time and investments. That's why we've developed a tool that makes it super easy to monitor and manage your angel investments - introducing the Smart Updates tool.
