USVC broadens access to Venture Capital, allowing retail investors to invest in promising companies before they become well-known.
Private market exposure has historically shaped return profiles well before public access becomes available.
You read about them in the news. But it is hard to get access until IPO.
Breakout growth often happens before public access.
Much of the appreciation has already occurred — captured by early employees and investors.
In 1980, the median company went public at 6 years old. Today it's 13. That's seven extra years of growth, during what can be the most valuable years, happening before retail investors can buy a single share.
Many of the most iconic managers and breakout funds operate on AngelList. With 6,000+ managers running 25,000+ funds and backing 25,000+ active startups, it’s a powerful signal network. We use that access as a starting point — then follow the top performers wherever they invest.
