The largest gathering of angel investors and entrepreneurs in the mid-Atlantic region has been marrying ideas with capital for over 18 years.
This year’s annual Angel Venture Fair, which is sponsored by the Private Investors Forum (PIF), takes place Tuesday, April 26 from 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. at the Union League of Philadelphia.
