Maverick Angels:
The Angels With A Heart

Maverick Angels are unique. How often do you hear angel investors talk about responsibility -- to entrepreneurs and to the community? Not nearly often enough. These Angels may just be one of a kind.

There it was, tucked away in the very last paragraph of an otherwise rather mundane article.

Q: What makes Maverick Angels different from other angel groups?
JD: Well, for one, we will look at any deal that has significant upside, no matter what industry they come from, not just technology companies. Also, we have a charitable focus because we believe it is important to support our local communities. 

Charitable? Angels? The absolute epitome of capitalistic endeavors. (Well, venture capital firms actually take the No.1 spot in that category.)

I wouldn't have been so impressed, but "JD" is John Dilts, the former head of Keiretsu Forum in Los Angeles. That he is heading up Maverick Angels, the angels with a conscience it seems, is absolutely refreshing.

The Maverick Angels seem to take this "responsibility" really seriously. They employ a full time staff that is focused everyday on creating a well-coordinated deal screening process where members collaborate smoothly to evaluate opportunities.

They have also created proprietary software called MaverickLink(TM) which is focused on supporting the back end due diligence process following an investor presentation.

In the end, they strive to make sure that they have the best members to provide capital, the best presenters to provide investment opportunities and the best sponsors to provide much needed resources.

All of this, and a community focus too.

What can I say? "I wish you every success imaginable!"
