A local network of angels is critical to achieving a diversified portfolio. Working within a network of angel investors also expands the pool of expert resources and helps divide the work of screening companies and investment due diligence. As can be seen the average (mean) pre-money valuation for recent pre-revenue deals is $2.1

What I notice is that people further the conversation, talk with each other, network, try to get noticed (linking to their websites, etc.). I wish every blog used Disqus and I wish every website that syndicated content would create an integrated commenting thread the way that Business Insider does. I rarely only read the post.

Online social networking is a concept still being evangelized even in Silicon Valley… Friendster is in private beta (wasn’t until Oct 2003 they received Google acquisition offer which they turned down for Kleiner/Benchmark round).

To provide some reference points, I surveyed thirteen angels groups in North American to determine their recent experience in negotiating the pre-money valuation of pre-revenue companies. See the 2010 data reported here: Current Pre-money Valuations of Pre-revenue Companies. Current Average.

I have frequently heard the expression from other investors, “We can put a lot of money to work here.” This is the psychology that drives VCs to load up a company with more capital, rationalizing that $5m at a $20m pre-money valuation is little different than $10m at a $40m pre-money valuation.

One of my comments was that we would likely see more institutionalization of angel groups and syndication of deals among groups. Again, I see nothing wrong with this, although entrepreneurs often prefer convertible debt as it defers the valuation discussion and leaves the Series A price for the venture firm to set. ► January.
