The Florida angel investing leaders will consolidate under one roof, bringing together 35+ years of combined investment history, expanding Florida investor access to early stage companies and founder access to capital.
MIAMI / BOCA RATON, FL — New World Angels today announced that Miami Angels, one of Florida's most prominent angel investing networks, will join with New World to create one of the region’s largest and most active early-stage venture capital groups. The combined organization will operate under the New World banner with over $65 million of investment collectively deployed, and 35+ years of combined operating history.
For Investors, Curated Investment Opportunities
For investors, the integration of Miami Angels and New World offers independent investors and family offices a statewide professional network with access to statewide emerging early stage investment opportunities.
“The best investor groups succeed because they have deep networks of experienced investors concentrated in one ecosystem. The integration of Miami Angels and New World will connect every major innovation corridor in Florida under one roof. Together with New World we're combining our efforts to match the growing scale of Florida's startup ecosystem.”
— Mark Kingdon, Board Chair, Miami Angels
The combined organization creates a collaboration platform for both large and small investors that spans Florida’s major economic zones; Miami to Palm Beach, Naples to Tampa, Orlando to Gainesville and Tallahassee, and Melbourne to Cocoa Beach and Jacksonville.
For Founders, Statewide Visibility To Investors
For founders, the integration of Miami Angels and New World provides visibility to Florida investors and most importantly those investors represent a source of relevant knowledge, experiences, and relationships.
“At both New World and Miami Angels, we have always provided more than financing. We’re about building a community of investors who, as current and former operators themselves, can apply their experiences and networks to help an entrepreneur succeed.”
— Ron Tarro, President, New World Angels
The combined group’s investor backgrounds span consumer products, healthcare and medical technologies, industrial & manufacturing technologies, information technology, space & defense, and now with Miami, a deeper focus on financial industry innovation.
For Florida’s Early Stage Ecosystem, Expanded and Well Directed Capital
The integrated Miami Angels and New World organization creates an ever stronger platform for aggregating and directing Florida capital across the Miami-Dade, the State of Florida, and more broadly across the American early stage ecosystem. The combined organization underpins Florida’s in-migration of investment capital and fuels the continued expansion of technology entrepreneurship.
