Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Food Angels?
Each partner invests individually; there is no central investment committee. Prof. Wolf Michael Nietzer, Dr. Günther Rodemeyer, Horst Schlegel, Alexander von Wedel, and Daniel von Wedel all deploy personal capital based on their own conviction. The network shares deal flow and co-invests opportunistically, but final commitment authority rests with each angel.
How does Food Angels source proprietary deal flow?
Deal flow comes primarily through direct founder approaches and the partners' personal networks in food, FMCG, and transactional law. The firm welcomes pitch decks at its published email address and leverages relationships with co-investors like ProVeg International and Kale United to access alternative-protein startups.
What investment stages does Food Angels typically target?
The network prefers pre-seed, seed, and Series A stages, including product-development-phase companies that have not yet reached market. In later stages, it supports growth and stabilization for dynamic startups, but early-stage remains the core focus.
How is Food Angels related to WOLFMAN.ONE?
WOLFMAN.ONE is Prof. Wolf Michael Nietzer's self-financed investment company, which provides venture capital from seed to Series A. It operates as his personal investment vehicle and forms part of the capital base he deploys within the Food Angels network, but the two are legally distinct from the other partners' entities.
