METHODOLOGY & VALIDATIONAngels and angel groups invest alone, together, and with many other types of investors. Unless otherwise noted, the 2016 HALO ReportTM data includes funding rounds that have at least one angel group participating and may include other types of investors in those rounds. Note that “Median Angel Group Investment” is the median size of investments made by Angel groups in the reported deals. There are many groups that have the capability of making significantly higher investments; however, the 2016 data showed that many of these groups also invested small amounts of capital. It is important to note that the “Median Funding Round Size” includes investments from Angel groups and non-angel groups including venture funds, family offices, and individual investors.

This report discusses angel group investment trends for 2016, which represents a total of 2,751 deals and $3.5B (excluding duplicates) in total rounds including co-investors. Deals with rounds greater than $5 million were excluded from this report to avoid skewing the data. The number of deals provided directly from angel groups represents a 200% increase over 2015. Data was captured directly from angel groups through the Angel Resource Institute’s data portal (www.arihaloreport.com), via email or phone calls from group leaders or administrators, and via Pitchbook. Additional data was collected from individual angels, but is not included in this report.
