The Charlottesville Angel Network (CAN) is a growing group of more than 70 accredited investors and family offices. We are independent investors who make our own independent investment decisions. Successful executives, entrepreneurs, scientists, and engineers, we are eager to apply our skills and put our connections and capital to work to help entrepreneurs succeed.

CAN invests in seed, angel, and friends & family rounds in promising startups raising less than $5MM. We typically invest $100K – $300K in a round and frequently partner with co-investors on Series A and B rounds. We collaborate with numerous other angel groups and funding sources to find the best startups. We also work to champion our investments with our network. 

CAN invests in companies that are driven by passionate and capable management teams with innovations and solutions that uniquely solve customer’s and market problems that represent high-growth opportunities with a focus on technology, software, consumer products, and advanced materials fields. Our investment and industry interests vary widely with an investment portfolio that includes: SAAS, digital healthcare, biotech, consumer products, clean energy, Ed Tech, and more. 

We have a soft-spot for Virginia-based companies, more than half of our investments are in Virginia, but we are open to great startups wherever they may be. We seek to build strong relationships with the startups we fund, often before we even fund them. We value those relationships more than proximity.
