It depends on the stage of your business, how much money you need to raise and the terms that you are hoping to secure. Venture capital is usually not available to pre-revenue or very low revenue businesses or in amounts lower than $2 to $3 million. As a result, if you are very early stage or need a smaller amount of cash, venture capital investment may not be an option. Angel capital is typically used to help a company prove out its technology and/or business model, secure customers and start its growth trajectory. Angel investors will invest smaller amounts and tend to be more patient with their investment (i.e., willing to wait a bit longer for an exit than a VC) and offer somewhat more company favorable terms.
