"This program didn't just cover the basics; it equipped me with the deep knowledge and confidence to take my investing to the next level."
"The course has been incredibly valuable. Understanding how to effectively package deals for our LPs has significantly improved our approach and helped us enhance our syndication efforts."
"I found a structured program that guided me to become a more mindful investor. The cohort provided valuable exposure to other investors at various stages in their journey, fostering a safe space for sharing ideas and learning together."
"Angel School provided a comprehensive playbook, which included invaluable due diligence modules, live case studies, and practical advice on writing investment memos. We have successfully applied these tactics to our deals in Bangladesh, greatly benefiting from the program."
"The program offered valuable insights into best practices, from growing an angel community and conducting due diligence, to closing deals, and selecting SPV platforms."
"It provided an out-of-the-box process for pipeline management and assessing deals as they came in. We emerged feeling that we weren’t alone in our challenges."
"This program helped me determine that syndication was precisely what I wanted to do. It aligned perfectly with my entrepreneurial spirit and addressed challenges I faced."

"The resources helped me learn about red and orange flags in due diligence. But what really has been the benefit for me, and still is today, is the network. I now have a very European, and even outside Europe, network of peers."

Our Founder Story
Hi, I’m Jed, the Founder of AngelSchool.vc. As a Tech Operator, I built the world’s largest API Marketplace with an a16z-backed startup.
I began investing in startups in 2016. Like most angels, I staked my own capital. Despite having never worked in VC, I got my 1st exit in 2018. I also backed 2 seed-stage startups that became Unicorns ($1BN+ valuation).
People started asking “what are you investing in next?”. I began sharing my deals with other investors.
Since 2020, our investor network has grown to 1500+ organically. We’ve scaled our avg. check by 10x and invest up to $1MN into a single startup.
We’ve written the ONLY playbook for building Angel syndicates and we’d love to share it with you.
Syndicate Blueprint helps angel investors build & operate their own syndicates. In over 8 weeks, you’ll get:
Frequently Ask Questions
Here are some of questions that our team often get. If you still have questions, read all FAQs.
What is the Syndicate Blueprint Program?
The ‘Syndicate Blueprint’ program gives experienced venture investors a complete roadmap for building and operating Angel Networks & lead syndicate investments.
It’s 100% based on how we built our syndicate from 0 to 1400 LPs organically, and invest up to $1 MN per startup.
This is the ONLY program specifically focused on Angel syndicates.
What is the Syndicate Blueprint program format?
The Syndicate Blueprint Program is a live instructor-led program. It’s 8 x 2.5 hr weekly sessions. The sessions are 100% online.
We recommend setting aside an additional 1 hr each week for session prep and assignments.

Our program fee is US$4,200. It includes FREE access to our Venture Fundamentals program and lifetime investment committee (IC) membership.

How do I find out more about the Syndicate Blueprint Program?
You can check out our website AngelSchool.vc. Here’s where you can book a call to speak with a member of our team.
What are the benefits of leading a syndicate?
Syndicates give investors capital leverage and the ability to earn carried interest. It drastically improves your risk/reward.
Writing a larger check also gives you better access and lets you do deeper diligence. This improves your odds of success.
Am I ready to lead a Syndicate?
We recommend having sufficient venture investing experience and a large enough professional network to source your initial LPs.
What are the admission requirements for the ‘Syndicate Blueprint’ program?
We admit applicants based on their ability to be successful. Here’s what we look for:
1. Venture experience: Invested in at least 3 venture startups.
2. LP Network: Your earliest LPs will come from your professional network. You should be confident to find your first 50 investors there.
3. Commitment: we’ll give you the tools to be successful. You’ll need to put in the work and be committed to the journey.
I need help with my venture investing foundations. Can you help?
Yes! Enroll in our Venture Fundamentals Program to brush up on your venture skills in just 10 hours. It’s bundled with the Syndicate Blueprint Program so it’s effectively free. (Find out more).
What happens after the Syndicate Blueprint program?
All program graduates get access to our Investment Committee (IC) to get real deal experience and build their track record.
It's a safety net for you to build up your LP networks as you’re getting ready to launch your own syndicate.
What is the Angel School investment committee (IC)?
ICs are our investment teams that source, diligence and make investment decisions. We operate regional ICs (US, Europe, and Asia) that meet every 2 weeks.
Program alums are guaranteed a seat at IC.
What are the benefits of joining the IC?
The IC gives program alumni a forum to get real deal experience, sharpen your skills and build your investor networks.
IC members are also enrolled in our Carry Sharing program ; this means you’re entitled to earn carried interest on every deal that AngelSchool.vc invests in.

More from Jed
Today, I’m backed by a network of investors that’s grown from 0 to 1000+ in 30 months. That network grows entirely on its own. As it scales, so does my ability to invest. Now, I deploy $MNs / year and expect that to double in the next year. I earn 20% carry on every syndicate- no exceptions.
I’ve never worked in PE or IB. I’ve never been a finance professional. I’ve never worked in a VC fund. If I can do it, so can any Angel with the right passion and drive.
There has never been more capital available for startups than today. What the market needs are ‘market makers’. I started Angel School.vc because I believe Angel investors and Syndicates serve that critical function. I want to empower the next generation of Angels to deploy more capital into their own ecosystems through their own syndicates.
Join our next cohort, and I’ll arm you with a Syndicate Blueprint within 8 weeks. We’ll continually invest in your development. You’ll work alongside other Angel School alumni gaining real investing experience, building your track record and even earn carry in the process.
