SeedStep Angels

SeedStep Angels functions as an accredited angel investment group, providing vital early-stage capital to emerging companies. Operating as a network, its individual members directly invest in ventures, distinct from a centralized fund model. The group focuses on offering screened deal flow and promoting robust investment best practices, benefiting from the operational oversight of i2E.

Established in 2009 by a consortium of accredited investors in Oklahoma, the organization formed in response to a critical funding gap within the region's startup landscape. This foundational insight aimed to spur economic development by nurturing the rapid expansion of innovative, high-growth companies within the local ecosystem.

The group primarily targets Oklahoma-based companies seeking investment, also considering external opportunities through partner referrals. SeedStep Angels’ enduring vision is to catalyze regional economic growth by empowering emerging companies, effectively bridging capital deficits and delivering substantial financial returns for its engaged angel investor community.
