Operating contrary to Web3’s digital native ethos, BitAngels and its elite investor network are playing a bold pioneering role in the digital asset space by leveraging the power of in-person networking and live pitching events to catalyze industry growth. Against the odds and expectations of Web3’s community of perpetually online builders, investors, users, and enthusiasts, BitAngels has proven to be serially successful in fostering innovation in Web3 by bringing together key players in the blockchain space through dynamic, face-to-face pitching competitions.
The Genesis of BitAngels
BitAngels emerged in 2013 as a groundbreaking initiative in the cryptocurrency investment landscape. Founded by long-time industry visionaries Michael Terpin and David Johnston, BitAngels’ investor network was conceived as a response to the growing need for structured investment channels in the burgeoning digital asset sector. From its inception, BitAngels set out to create a robust ecosystem where battle-tested blockchain entrepreneurs could connect with experienced investors to spur innovation and growth.
BitAngels’ founders recognized early on that Web3 required more than just virtual interactions. They envisioned a platform that would bring together the best of both worlds – the global reach of digital native networks and the irreplaceable value of face-to-face connections. BitAngels’ unique approach rapidly advanced the organization to the forefront of the blockchain investment scene, connecting projects and developers of cutting-edge, and on-chain protocols with elite investors. Leveraging conventional pitching competitions that rewarded winning technologies and founders based on merit, BitAngels changed the Web3 investment game for good.
The Power of In-Person Networking
In an era dominated by digital communication, BitAngels has risen to the top by emphasizing the importance of in-person engagements. As BitAngels has proven time and time again, the depth of trust and connection that can be achieved in even a short in-person pitching session is sufficient not only to encourage investment, but to produce a stellar long-term and trustworthy relationship between investors and founders. The organization’s commitment to in-person networking events sets it apart from others in the blockchain investment space.
While online platforms can facilitate initial introductions, the nuances of body language, the energy of spontaneous discussions, and the trust built through personal interactions are as unique as they are powerful. For entrepreneurs, BitAngels’ pitching events offer a rare opportunity to present their visions directly to potential investors, gauging immediate reactions and receiving invaluable feedback.
BitAngels Brings Web3 Together in Bangkok
A prime example of BitAngels’ impact on the Web3 ecosystem is the recent success story of StratEx, an innovative DeFi protocol that attended its first BitAngels pitching competition in Bangkok during Thailand Blockchain Week. StratEx’s Head of Business Development, Jack Hartley, delivered a compelling presentation that captured the attention of discerning audience members and judges alike. The presentation, along with a heavy dose of authenticity and a star-studded team of Web3 entrepreneurs with successful track records in Web3, earned StratEx first place honors.
StratEx is just one of many fledgling projects that have received early-stage recognition and opportunities to gain financial support and form key connections at a BitAngels pitching competition.
BitAngels’ Bold Vision
As the Web3 space continues to march forward online, BitAngels’ commitment to accelerating global blockchain adoption remains in-real-life. By facilitating key connections between entrepreneurs, investors, and the wider blockchain and DeFi communities, BitAngels has its sights set on a world where in digital native technologies and human connection can advance and support one another through a harmonious convergence of old school tradition and modern technology.
