Since launching Ramen Ventures two years ago, we’ve asked hundreds of founders how we can be the best angel investor in Canada. You told us that you wanted us to share three things: money, connections, and experience.

Money

Founders want to raise their angel round from a few high-quality angels, not 50 of them.

Starting today, we’re increasing our angel investments from $50K to $100-$150K so you can spend less time chasing money and more time building something users love.

Connections

Founders want angel investors who can connect them to the people they need.

So, we’ve spent the past two years building trusted relationships with the best co-investors. Now, we can help you close your angel round with support from other amazing angels. Later, we can set you up for a successful Seed round with the best US and Canadian VCs.

Experience

Founders want angels who have built a hyper-growth company to share the lessons they’ve learned.

We’re good at three things – Product, Engineering, and People – but we’ve been bad at sharing the lessons we’ve learned with you. So, we’re fixing that. Along with more money, we’re also investing more time in you. And soon, we’re publishing short guides on everything we’ve learned about Product, Engineering, and People.

Our Mission is to help founders build World-class startups and make the world a better place. We hope that these changes bring us closer to achieving it. Thank you to everyone who has supported us thus far.
