An angel investor's take on life and business

Investors like me are bombarded with e-mails. A face-to-face chat makes you stand out. Here’s how to find investors to pitch in person…

OpenVC has an amazing free tool called OpenVC Map. It maps the location of over 16,000 venture firms and angel investors worldwide. I’ll actually be showing up on the map myself soon!

Here’s how it works…

Take my stomping grounds, the NYC area. The largest concentration of investors is around 50th and Park in Midtown. No shocker there — that’s the biggest center of finance in the world. 

You can see every investor plotted on the map. Click on one and get info on their investment strategy and how to contact them. 

Let’s click on Insight Partners. They’re one of the largest venture firms in the world.. 

On the Insight profile, we can see that they write checks from $7M to $700M. We also see the regions where they invest, the stages they like, and even their address. 

You can pitch them by clicking the Submit Deck button. If Insight likes what you’re doing, you can propose an in-person meeting. 

Now you know where their offices are! 

OpenVC works all over the world. There are 99 investors in Tokyo, 108 in Berlin, even 23 in Lagos!

Use the OpenVC map to get in person with investors. If you impress them face to face, they’ll be reaching for their wallet.
