Angel Venture Fair 2020

The Angel Venture Fair (AVF), which takes place on  from Thursday, April 30th 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Union League, brings together the largest gathering of Angel Investors and Entrepreneurs in the Mid-Atlantic region and has showcased over 500 companies in the last 20 years. The program is a total community effort from start to finish, with every angel group in the Mid-Atlantic receiving pertinent information on the AVF and sending their members to attend & scout the fair. Applicants to the AVF are reviewed by 80 judges (made up of angels and conduits to angels) and 34 lucky entrepreneurs (out of hundreds) are selected to showcase their new venture on the day of the fair.  Please note The Union League has a dress code policy of formal business attire that is strictly enforced: you will not be allowed to enter the building if dressed otherwise.
