What is a Super Angel?
Super angels are investors with a high net worth that often participate in investing into companies during their seed stage. These investors exchange their investment in startup companies for a stake in the equity. This investment option is ideal for startups who need financing but don’t want the obligation of paying back loans. Angel investors can be found through angel networks who accept applications and refer investors to startups that meet certain pre-determined criterion.
Super Angel Examples
Examples of a super angel:
- Example 1. Successful business people
- Example 2. Have a higher net worth than traditional angel investors
- Example 3. Invests their own money

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
