They get together with a few buddies, bounce around ideas, build some code (sometimes internally, sometimes through contractors), start talking to potential angel investors and then register their company.

You can make a real difference and teach the Denver PUC the same lesson that community leaders supporting Uber have already taught similar groups in places like Boston and Washington DC and others: that the people of Colorado won’t stand for protectionist actions that prevent innovation.

I’ve known Joe for a while – we met through Techstars Boston, where he’s been a great mentor and very active angel investor. This morning I woke up to an email thread from a founder of a company I’m an investor in. Yesterday, at The Calloway Way event at MIT , I ran into Joe Caruso.

How-to learn about angel/vc term sheets - Gabriel Weinberg , June 28, 2010 I think every startup entrepreneur (and angel investor) should have a good understanding of financing term sheets. It sounds like Angel Boot Camp rocked. You can follow us all on twitter via the new hacker-angels list. Delegate and automate.

If your startup is looking for an Angel investor, does it makes sense to present your plan to flocks of Angels, and assume that at least one will swoop down and scoop you up? In reality, hitting large numbers of Angels in multiple locations with a generic pitch is one of the least productive approaches. Marty Zwilling.

The NY Times is reporting today on the question of entrepreneurs paying to pitch their companies to prospective investors - “Should Start-Ups Pay to Pitch?”. My view of angel groups is simple. If you’re not rich enough to screen your own potential investments then you’re not rich enough to be an angel investor.

This week, we helped organize an Angel Bootcamp where some of Boston’s most successful angel investors shared their experiences and lessons learned to a crowd of aspiring angels and entrepreneurs.

I’ve managed to contact two serial entrepreneurs by email, give them the pitch, and both of them agreed with me but commented that it would be a challenge to set up. If you’re in New Haven, you may have to go up to Boston. I have an interesting project idea, but it requires seasoned programming skills.

Conceptually, this is very intriguing and goes against the current popularity of accelerators in start-up hubs (Silicon Valley, New York, Boston, Seattle, Boulder) that are filled with recent grads and drop outs looking to build the next web sensation.
