Australian Association of Angel Investors Conference, Adelaide

The AAAI held its annual conference on Angel Investing during the past week at the Stamford Grand in Glenelg. It was a great chance to meet up with old friends and learn a bit more about this strange occupation we call Angel Investing.

Adelaide is a beautiful city and Glenelg is a beatiful beachside suburb. The weather was very warm, the water was delightful and it would have been great to just stretch out on the beach and relax. No such luck.

The conference consisted of:

  • government briefing forum
  • tutorial for novice investors
  • master class in Due Diligence
  • 9 sessions with 4 speakers and moderator for each
  • presentations on current Angel group investments and activity survey
  • dinner with speakers and comedy entertainment.

We had speakers from Canada, Europe, USA, NZ and all over Australia. The organisation was flawless, the venue firstclass and the whole experience outstanding.
