Our Ecosystem
We are happy to share that The 2022 WESTERN ANGEL INVESTMENT SUMMIT took place on April 8, 2022. Pieter Dorsman opened the in-person summit by reflecting on the shift caused by the pandemic and outlining the challenges and opportunities ahead for both founders and investors. It was an event with a great atmosphere where investors, founders and others got together, drinking and chatting, in some cases, investors meeting the founders of the company they had invested in for the very first time in person. We at InWest Ventures were very proud and happy to be a part of this summit. Read the full article about it by clicking the link below.
