The AngelList Mafia

Making startup investing accessible to everyone was the spark that set AngelList in motion. Founded in 2010 by Naval Ravikant and Babak Nivi, the company set out to challenge the tight-knit world of venture capital by opening the doors to a new generation of angel investors.

What began as a curated email list quickly evolved into a powerful platform where startups meet capital, talent, and tools to grow. With billions deployed and thousands of companies backed, AngelList has become a key player in reshaping how early-stage innovation is funded and who gets to be part of it.

AngelList’s also cultivates builders. Known for its lean, mission-driven culture, the company empowers its team to think independently, move fast, and work on problems that truly matter. That spirit of innovation has inspired a wave of entrepreneurship.

Whether launching new platforms for token sales, democratizing private investing, or advancing AI, former AngelList employees are shaping the future of tech across multiple frontiers. It's a clear sign that AngelList doesn’t just support startups, it helps create startup leaders.
