Hyde Park Angels

Hyde Park Angels (HPA) is a leading early-stage investor based in Chicago whose 'People First' model uniquely leverages world-class operating expertise, a powerful business network, and venture capital to fuel startup success. As a result, HPA's founders transform their businesses into industry leaders, investors generate best-in-class returns, and the broader community experiences job creation and economic growth. HPA partners with founders from seed through Series A, providing both human and financial capital to accelerate growth. The firm focuses primarily on technology, healthcare, consumer, and marketplace companies in the Midwest, and has evolved from a traditional angel network into an institutional-grade venture investor — backing companies that have reached unicorn status and achieved significant exits.
