Go for the angels

Ron Conway, a prolific west coast angel investor, in a recent article for GigaOm writes why startups should seek angel funding over venture funding.

Its critical that entrepreneurs understand the key differences between angels and VCs before deciding on a funding strategy. It’ll make the process much easier for the startup as well as the investors involved.

In an earlier article on GigaOm, Anand Rajaraman of Cambrian Ventures, offers an example of a startup that should have gone for angel funding, and then goes on to explain some of the differences between VC, angel, and bootstrapping.
