I’m energized by the opportunity to interact with some of the most innovative entrepreneurial talent in Angel Launchpad Ventures

ALV and the team behind it have been an integral part of Vulcan Line Tools journey.

Their guidance and mentorship have not only played a large part in growing my company but in my own skills as an entrepreneur. From helping me polish my presentation, to connecting me with the perfect people to present to, they have allowed me to propel the growth of my company. My experience with VNC has been invaluable and i look forward to seeing what they do for others just like me.

ALV has been an invaluable part of our fundraising process.

They do a tremendous job of making connections between investors and entrepreneurs, and there is no doubt we have many of our investors today only because of ACN. It is the first place I will turn in Alabama as part of any future fundraising efforts.

ALV is such an incredibly deep well of resources for startups in the Global.

Con.doit pitched at the first post-COVID pitch day and had a tremendous response from the ALV community. Our pitch led to several connections that I now count among my most valuable. The ALV network stretches in many directions and is flexible enough to accommodate established companies and early startup ideas alike.
