Cine sunt acesti business angels si cum arata ei? Exista ei doar in America? Exista oare si in Romania? Sunt ei greu de gasit? Finantare.ro te ajuta.

In aceasta sectiune iti prezentam o serie de investitori romani de tip business angel care te pot inspira sa gasesti persoane cu acelasi profil din industria ta sau din alte zone accesibile tie. Pe langa o lista sumara cu cei mai cunoscuti business angels de la noi, am adaugat si asociatii si organizatii care se ocupa cu punerea in contact a investitorilor de acest tip cu antreprenorii cu idei de afaceri creative si cu potential.
