Dave Berkus has been angel investing for more than 20 years – before the term “angel” was popularly known. This super angel has a wealth of stories from his angel portfolio of 137 companies. And his insights come from a combination of successes, failures and missed opportunities.

Dave’s experiences are colored by his early experience as a successful entrepreneur. When he started angel investing in 1993, he knew he wanted to do more than just provide money – he wanted to mentor and help direct the companies he invested in.  “I wanted to be different than a venture capitalist,” he said. “I called myself a resource capitalist.”
