For any fund over $5 MM, syndicates are a waste of time. They take an enormous amount of effort to close and to manage, and they don’t raise sizable amounts of capital. For example, it’s not uncommon to spend hundreds of hours, $50,000 USD and 6 months to raise less than a million.

What if you set a minimum from the outset because the Angel Syndicate was formed to invest in your fund?
