TAX ADVANTAGES BEHIND EARLY-STAGE INVESTMENTS

The Angels are back!

Join the CBS London Alumni community for the first event of 2020 for the CBS London angel group on Tuesday February 25th. We will start the year with an "educational" session, learning about the tax advantages behind early-stage investments, hearing from QVentures on their SEIS fund and congratulating Rebecca Saunders '13 on her recent angel round which saw the participation of many CBS Alumni.

This event is targeted at current and potential Columbia alumni angels as well as entrepreneurs with fundraising experience/targets within the UK. The aim is to inform the audience about tax incentives and how to access opportunities. In addition to the curated event and time for networking, the Angel Committee will provide the audience with a brief overview of Columbia-related angel resources.
