Recommendations stem from grant and guidance from the Kauffman Foundation
Feb. 28, 2008 —The National Governors Association (NGA) has released an Issue Brief that explores the benefits of early-stage investments by “angels”—wealthy individuals or groups of individuals that provide entrepreneurs with capital, connections and guidance. The paper, State Strategies to Promote Angel Investment for Economic Growth, offers a variety of policy recommendations to help states encourage angel investments in their states.
As part of a grant to the NGA, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation sponsored a roundtable of experts and provided consultation and information to the NGA Center for Best Practices, which published the brief.
