Frequently asked questions

How does FEA Angels source and select investments?

The network uses an internal evaluation committee staffed by member volunteers to screen and select startups before they reach the wider investor base. Selected founders present at structured events such as Pitch Night and FEA Angels Day, where individual members decide whether to invest. The association does not maintain a centralized deal team.

Does FEA Angels operate a pooled fund or make investments as a single entity?

No. FEA Angels is an investor network, not a fund. Associated investors write individual checks directly into the startups presented. The association facilitates deal flow, screening, and community, but does not deploy capital from a unified balance sheet.

What kind of companies has FEA Angels backed?

The portfolio spans at least three sectors: FinTech (Conta Simples, a corporate card issuer for Brazilian SMEs), FoodTech (Future Cow, producing animal-free milk), and Biotech (Cellva Ingredients, developing cultivated fat). The network targets early-stage Brazilian startups and has a generalist approach.

Who runs FEA Angels?

FEA Angels does not publish a list of managing principals. The network is governed through member-run committees focused on evaluation, mentorship, and content. It was created by alumni of FEA-USP, though no named founding operator is publicly disclosed on the firm's website.

How large is the FEA Angels investor base and what is its deployment record?

The association reports surpassing 100 active investor members and deploying more than R$ 5 million since its 2018 launch (per the firm, 2025). The network does not disclose member-level commitment sizes or an overall AUM figure.
