Angel Investment Syndicate
Our group of angel investors are looking to invest in start up founders who are of black and ethnic (BME) backgrounds. The aim is to unlock the potential of the founders and help them create successful companies at scale while building the UK economy.
BME founders tend to be overlooked when it comes to receiving investment in their businesses. We want to create a vehicle that taps into an ecosystem of talented entrepreneurs so that the rewards for both parties are maximised in years to come.
Talks & Seminar Sessions
Our bespoke sessions with leaders of industry on specialist subjects enable our audience members to learn and connect with with the speakers providing them with unique engagement opportunities.
We look at different industries and explore topics and provide insights into how different industries work and how individuals can progress and gain advantages within their careers and entrepreneurial endeavours .
“Success Talks were very professional to work with. Their understanding of our millennial audience and the corporate environment made them seamless to work with. I would recommend them as a vendor to any corporate organisation!”
