The Lehigh Valley Angel Investors' Group

The Lehigh Valley Angel Investors Group (LVAI) operates as an angel investment network, providing crucial seed and growth capital to promising startup companies. The group leverages the collective investment capital and extensive domain expertise of its accredited members, offering strategic guidance alongside funding. Their structured process involves rigorous screening, entrepreneur presentations, thorough due diligence, and ongoing support post-investment.

LVAI originated in the Lehigh Valley in 2011, formed by a collective of experienced entrepreneurs and business professionals. The group was established to address a notable gap in early-stage capital provision within the local ecosystem. Its members bring hundreds of years of combined business acumen, actively participating in the development and management of successful organizations, thereby fostering a robust support system for their investment partners.

The primary beneficiaries of LVAI’s efforts are entrepreneurs and emerging companies seeking capital and mentorship to scale their ventures. While rooted in the Lehigh Valley, the group has expanded its focus to encompass the broader Northeast U.S. and beyond. LVAI’s long-term vision centers on cultivating successful new businesses by empowering innovative founders with both financial backing and invaluable operational experience.
