Tech Valley Angel Network

The Tech Valley Angel Network (TVAN) invests in growth-oriented, technology companies that are located within 150 miles of Albany, New York and are seeking $1 million or less in investments. They do not work with businesses such as real estate opportunites, restaurants, retail shops, etc. Beginning in mid-September, 2005, the Center for Economic Growth (CEG) began managing TVAN and in March 2006, absorbed TVAN completely, to join with two other major Venture Funding initiatives in the Capital Region already run by CEG, Venture Bplan and the SmartStart Venture Forum. This brought together CEG's programs throughout funding continuum that support technological entrepreneurship.
