Since its inception as The National Gathering for Social Entrepreneurs in 1998, the Social Enterprise Alliance (SEA) has been the champion and key catalyst for the development of the social enterprise sector in the United States. Our vision is for social enterprise to reach its potential as a force for more effective and sustainable social impact. We empower social enterprises with the tools and resources they need to succeed, and work to foster a social enterprise ecosystem in which they can thrive.
We are 60+ Angel investors who are passionate about helping Kiwi Startups grow and succeed in international markets. We are active Angels which means we help founders early on with advice and connections at our ADI.Clinic sessions across nine sites in New Zealand. Our comprehensive due diligence is always constructive whether or not we invest. When we invest our FKA Champion and investor rep ensures that we stay connected so we can help with our group smarts and with follow-on rounds.
We don't monetize the investment process via commission or otherwise. Our investment philosophy is to be aligned with the founders and earn our return on exit. Notwithstanding that, working with great founders can be very rewarding in its own right.
