FAQs

INvestors

  • PAC is not a venture fund, investment bank, broker-dealer, clearinghouse, or investment advisor. We are a forum that facilitates connections between entrepreneurs and investors. Each member is responsible for his or her own investment decisions and PAC does not recommend investments.

  • Please contact us to inquire about membership. We will schedule a short conversation to learn more about you and make sure there’s a fit before asking you to apply.

  • Yes! Please reach out so we can learn more about your organization and connect with you.

  • PAC does not require a minimum of dollars invested, but does expect our members to invest in at least one opportunity per year. Members are expected to be actively looking for opportunities and, when reasonably possible, to attend all meetings and events. We require all of our members to support the network by serving on one of our committees that help the network function.

FAQs

Entrepreneurs

  • Please check out the “Entrepreneurs” page for more information on the companies our members generally invest in.

  • As entrepreneurs ourselves, we know your time is valuable and many organizations are looking for funding in a short term window. We move as quickly as possible internally to get companies through our process, notwithstanding any outstanding requests for information from the entrepreneur. Our goal is to move companies from start to finish within a 60-90 day window, though there are many factors outside of our control.

  • Throughout the process, we will likely request information from three different buckets: the business, the founder(s)/executive(s), and the mission/impact. The business includes typical financial due diligence (market, finances, operations, strategy, sales, marketing, etc.), the founder(s)/executive(s) includes information about the founding team (their personalities, vision, and goals), and the mission includes information about the purpose of the business.

  • Yes, we charge $50 when an entrepreneur is invited to apply. However, as of January 2022, we’ve decided to waive this fee until further notice.

  • Individual angels within our group may be open to leading an investment or providing the majority of capital for a round. PAC is not a fund and therefore does not lead investments.
