Hard Tech investors
Hard tech angels invest in companies with real engineering or science risk — semiconductors, advanced materials, manufacturing, connected devices, and other physical products. Because capital needs and timelines differ from software, these investors are typically former hardware operators who can evaluate bill of materials, supply chain, and manufacturing readiness alongside market demand.
Angels frequently help with contract-manufacturer introductions, component sourcing, and milestone-based financing plans.
