よくある質問
How do angel investors differ from VCs?
Angels invest their own money and decide fast, often in days; VCs invest institutional funds, run longer processes, and write larger checks.
How do I find angel investors?
Filtered databases, operator networks at scaled startups, and angel groups are the highest-yield sources; warm intros help but are not required.
