Full textThis study is concerned with business angels’ investments process and which aspects in their choice of target firms are considered important in that process. The problem statement of this thesis is; what aspects play a role in Business angels’ investment decision, and in what way? How do these aspects affect business angels when making investment decisions, and why? The aim subsequently is concerned with discerning what is most important for business angels when choosing their target firms and how business angels make their investment decisions. We also aim to be able to create a deeper understanding of business angels, and contribute to small entrepreneurial firms in their search for financiers. Our research can provide information on how entrepreneurs can attract business angels.
The study is created with previous studies as a framework, and a wide selection of studies have been used. These have been examined and issues which in those studies have been found to be important for business angels have been reviewed and accounted for in the theory chapter.
The approach we used for data collection was through qualitative interviews with the use of an interview guide. This is explained by our aspiration to understand business angels’ investment criteria rather than describe them. Due to this, the view of interpretivism along with constructionism was taken on when constructing the interviews and findings. The respondents were found through business angels networks, and the selection of business angels entailed a fair representation of the researched group. This thesis has been conducted in an academically correct manner, and the results are validated and confirmed by the respondents.
The results we came to from our interviews were that the entrepreneur was most important for business angels in their evaluations, but other aspects also played a role. We analyzed our results with the use of our theory section and hence could see that some things we had come up with were unique, whilst some findings confirmed previous studies. We found that many business angels turn down investments due to their lack of time, which was a rather new emphasize for this study. Some qualities of the entrepreneur the business angels required were that they needed to be sales oriented and not overly optimistic about the future returns and prosperity of their ventures. We have shown that if entrepreneurs are overly optimistic about the value of their own firm it is likely that they will lose the deal. This was also of interest as it has not been stated as clearly in previous studies.
We conclude the thesis by giving advice to entrepreneurs and business angels, what future business angels should keep in mind and also what entrepreneurs should know before they involve themselves with business angels.

Full textFor entrepreneurs it can be difficult to attract investors. The business plan is a well-known document for that purpose, and is used widely by entrepreneurs and companies. With this in mind, several questions arise. What information in a business plan is important? Do the criteria for information in a business plan differ between banks, venture capital companies, and business angels? What is the perception of a business plan to these investors? These are questions future entrepreneurs have to deal with before taking action and start searching for investors. This thesis investigates the investors’ perspective on the issue of entrepreneurship and business planning.The purpose of this thesis is to broaden the understanding of the business plan as a mean to attract capital for new ventures. It further aims to investigate the relevance of the business plan and the optimal composition of information, according to the investors. A qualitative method has been used in this thesis. Empirical findings have been captured from interviews with relevant actors in the investing market, and thereafter been analyzed with existing theories. The overall conclusion in this thesis is that there is a very broad view of the business plan as a concept. There are different aspects of the business plans roles as a formal mean to attract capital. Obvious differences between how the three different investors evaluate a business plan have been found as well as that the investors find other things than the business plan to be important in a decision. The investors do not look solely on the business plan and then make the decision whether to invest or not. The third conclusion is that all three investors enter a company with different roles, affecting the business’ activities in different ways. Finally, the business plan as a document is never as formal as the theory states. It is surprisingly different from the theory which claims that formality is an important issue in this kind of documents.

Founders of new ventures in the medical technology (Medtech) industry require capital to establish, sustain, and grow their companies. Most founders must seek some form of external capital to meet these demands; in Medtech, the most well-known and prestigious of these is venture capital (VC). However, another type, angel investors, may be as important as VCs. Angels are accredited investors that invest their own money directly in new ventures. Founders of new Medtech ventures may choose to seek capital from angel investors in addition to, or instead of, venture capitalists. Unfortunately, there is little research available on outcomes for founders and their firms when angel investors are involved. Like VCs, angels seek financial returns from their investments; however, there may be additional and different motivations at play that make angels willing to grant more friendly terms to founders. As a result, it may actually be advantageous for founders to seek capital from angel investors. This paper addresses the question of whether founders of new ventures in the Medtech industry have better outcomes in terms of ownership and control of the company when one or more investment rounds involve angel investors in addition to, or in place of, VCs. Ownership is measured by the amount of equity owned just prior to an IPO, and control by the presence of founders as employees or directors at the time of the IPO. Analyzing S-is from the last 10 years of initial public offerings (IPOs), a dataset was constructed that comprised the shareholders of the 63 Medtech companies that experienced an IPO between 2001 and 2010. Of these, 18 companies had some presence of angel ownership that could be gleaned from the S-1; of those, 12 had at least a 5% stake belonging to angels. Results presented in the paper show, for the first time, those founders of Medtech firms with angel investors as shareholders at the time of IPO have significantly greater ownership of shares and significantly greater control of the firm as an employee or director than founders of firms without angels present. Angel-backed firms required less investment capital and no more time to reach the IPO, and, importantly, did not suffer with respect to the overall valuation of the firm. On the contrary, there was a trend of firms - and founders themselves - seeming to benefit from a valuation perspective, and significantly better from a multiple perspective, when angel investors were present. Even when firms received backing from venture capitalists, angel investor involvement also seemed to generally improve the performance of the firm and of the founders along the measured dimensions.
