We invest in early-stage companies and support them throughout their growth

Hamatha was formed to make angel investing accessible and enjoyable for our members and to form positive working relationships with the entrepreneurs we invest in.

The origin of the word "Hamatha" is a portmanteau of family names, e.g. "tha" is part of "Thai".

Our members consists of angels investors with expertise in various industries - including financial services, healthcare, technology, and data analytics - as management consultants or industry professionals.

We are always on the lookout for driven talented entrepreneurs working on amazing ideas that will help push their customers forward to new heights.

We look for companies that:

1. are based in the United States
2. target a large and growing market
3. solve a problem for an underserved customer segment
4. operate an understandable business model with some pricing strength
5. consist of a passionate and reliable core team with complementary skills and experience
6. develop unique assets, such as disruptive technology or exclusive revenue streams
7. offer reasonable deal terms
8. have a reasonable path forward and exit strategy

While we are industry agnostic, there are certain types of companies that naturally fit us better, such as: B2B and B2B2C software companies; and data heavy companies leveraging AI and ML.

We consider ourselves value-added investors and offer much more than just a financial investment. For the companies we invest in, we leverage our members' connections and experience built over decades of work as industry leaders.

We are able to be active advisors and can assist in areas such as:

• making introductions to key industry leaders
• connecting with other active investors and investment groups
• reviewing strategic and operational plans
• identifying key hires

We try to make our process simple and straight forward.

1. Connect with us and schedule a time to talk to the team
2. Submit an investor packet
3. Present to our members - scheduled in the evenings and is virtual
4. Submit a due diligence packet
5. Members make individual investment decisions. If there is enough interest, the captial is pooled together and a single investment is made

We operate Hamatha using an angel investment syndicate model - investment decisions are made on an individual basis. You are not required to invest in any particular deal. We do not charge a membership fee.

Our meetings are all virtual. When there are investment presentations, they are typically held on Wednesday evenings and recorded for those who are unable to attend. The presentation and subsequent Q&A lasts about an hour.

A members only discussion is held on the Saturday morning following a presentation. Those discussions are not recorded. If there are additional questions after the presentation or discussion, we connect with the entrepreneurs and schedule additional Q&A sessions if needed.

Once there is enough interest in a deal, a new SPV (special purpose vehicle) is formed to invest in that deal.

Our members are accredited investors and have an existing professional or personal relationship with one another. To join Hamatha, the best way is to connect with an existing member.
