About Apollo Informal Investment
Apollo is an angel syndicate based in Edinburgh. Founded in 2013, their mission is to provide seed investment to new startups based in Scotland and to provide exciting investment opportunities for their members. They operate on a volunteer basis, with local business leaders giving their time to prepare companies for investment. They invest in companies on a one-off basis, and seek to provide early stage financing which is critical to getting off the ground whilst building a diverse portfolio for their members. They are passionate about growing young businesses, and they continue to develop their partnerships with larger scale investment firms across the UK to enable onward funding where required. They believe their model provides a great ‘light touch’ model for investors wanting to try something new and a great opportunity for local entrepreneurs.
