The Central Texas Angel Network members are qualified accredited investors who have experience or are interested in the investment business.

All members are experienced and skilled in their own respective fields or industries, such as in marketing or finance. Members are assured to have access on superior investment opportunities, as well as a privilege to enter into co-investment deals with other qualified investors or acquire investment opportunities from affiliate companies, such as the Houston Angel Network. However, membership to the Central Texas Angel Network is only invitational. An aspiring member should adhere to the rules of membership and conduct, as well as the membership agreement, and should be willing to pay an annual membership fee of $1,500.
