Angel Programs
For smaller business owners, women, and minorities, there has been a growing trend toward the development of "angel" programs through business organizations and companies specializing in small business. Individuals and small companies that want to invest smaller amounts in promising businesses are linked with those companies and the two decide whether the loan will be made. While angel investing has been around for years, the establishment of organized programs is relatively new, but holds some promise for the future.
