Anchor Angels is an independent angel network for the Vanderbilt community. We connect investors with early-stage founders through curated deal flow, structured pitch forums, and educational programming - building infrastructure for the Vanderbilt startup and innovation ecosystem.

We are a community, not a fund. Members invest individually on their own terms.
A screening committee of experienced investors evaluates each opportunity. Approved startups present at pitch forums, where members conduct diligence and make independent investment decisions.

The network is open to anyone with a Vanderbilt connection - alumni, students, faculty, staff, parents, and community members - as investors, founders, or associates.
