In the run up to Angel Boot Camp, I thought it’d be interesting to do a poll on who are the best angel investors in and around Boston. While the results are hardly scientific, I do think this list maps pretty well to reality, and if just one entrepreneur benefits from it, I’ll be happy.
So by popular vote, here are Boston’s best angels, roughly in order of the number of votes received (there were some ties):
Dharmesh Shah
Andy Payne
David Cancel
Brian Shin
Joe Caruso
Lee Hower
John Landry
Bill Warner
Jean Hammond
Rich Miner
Reed Sturtevant
Shikhar Ghosh
Don Dodge
Dave Balter
Will Herman
Angus Davis
Steven Kane
Note: Lee Hower and Angus Davis are actually based in Providence, so it’s to their credit that they even rank on this list, and Lee scores highly still.
Want to follow these folks on Twitter? Here’s a list I created of Boston’s best angels.
Incidentally, I know many of these folks personally. So if you and I know each other reasonably well and you’d like an intro, drop me a note. Happy to help.
Any glaring omissions? Send ‘em my way.
