A selection of our successful investees

“Advantage Business Angels provided us with a great opportunity to present our business and the investment case to their network of private investors. John Rankin of ABA was both very encouraging and provided invaluable feedback on the pitch before and after the actual event. I would have no hesitation recommending ABA and fully expect to work with them again on our next funding round.”

— James Macnaghten, CEO at Caldera


“'We have worked with John and Advantage Business Angels through multiple investment rounds and have always found it a fantastic experience. ABA have a brilliant group of investors and we owe much of our success to them.”

— Josh Davies, CEO at Beep


“We used ABA as part of our last funding round and found the process simple, fast and efficient. We would have no hesitation in using them again and would recommend them to others”

— Simon Wheatley, Director at Learning Labs Limited


As a business owner you dream of finding investors who not only understand your business but also share your passion to succeed. It’s been a pleasure dealing with ABA and the support has been fantastic from start to finish. 

I would strongly recommend ABA to any striving businesses looking for investment. 

— Achille Traore, CEO at Perks Loyalty


“Advantage Business Angels have been an absolute pleasure to work with. I was seriously impressed with their quick decision making process and the fact that their members are willing to go the extra mile to help you achieve your goals. I highly recommend any business looking to gain funding from them.”

— Elliott Herrod-Taylor, CEO at The Bunch


“When looking to get a new business through start up and into scale up it is key to work with investors who understand this part of the growth cycle and “get” the business idea and the team as well as looking for good returns. In ABA we found such a network. We have ambitious plans for Beacon and the support that we received from ABA as we raised our seed funding and started the growth process has been superb. I cannot recommend them more highly.”

— Nigel Bridges, Managing Director at Beacon


“Advantage Business Angels have been the ideal access-to-funding partner. The pitch process was clear and simple. The due diligence is efficient and did not distract from running the business. ABA were able to find us 12 investors and, even with the complication of raising funds via SEIS and EIS, all went smoothly.  Post investment we've benefited from one Angel becoming our Chairman, not as a condition of investment, but because of his industry experience. I would fully recommend ABA if you are seeking an angel investment.”

— Jonathon Jackson, CEO at Previsico


“Our raise from the Advantage Business Angels network was successful thanks to the time and thought that went in to planning the investment pitch event, which followed a detailed review of our deck and the opportunity ahead of the session. The format of their pitching event is perfect. It’s a good amount of time to get stuck into the opportunity at a level of detail that works for entrepreneur and investor. We had soft-commitments over the lunch that followed and the first funds were closed within just a few weeks. I’d heartily recommend them to seed-stage entrepreneurs looking to raise the first capital beyond their immediate friends and family.”

— Charles Radclyffe, CEO at Ethics Grade
