Analyse your fitInvestment thesis
The Games Angels is a global collective of games industry veterans who have built and scaled successful games companies. They invest as angels — individually or as a syndicate — in early-stage games and games-related businesses where they believe they can add hands-on value, helping founders avoid the mistakes they have made themselves. They are not a fund; each member opts in to individual deals based on personal interest and area of expertise. They look for companies building games, tools, platforms, or adjacent products, backing teams that demonstrate a clear product vision, a credible plan, and a compelling business model — whether premium, free-to-play, subscription, or B2B SaaS. They also actively welcome angels from outside the games industry who want exposure to games deal-flow, and are always looking to grow their network of investor-operators.
Notable quotes
“Nick founded The Games Angels in 2021, a community of games industry veterans investing and supporting start-ups.”
“We either invest individually or as a syndicate but we are not a fund and our members invest in what they are interested in. As a collective we use our areas of expertise to assess the opportunities presented. There is no pressure on any angel to invest; it is entirely an opt-in to each investment, but this means that every investor is fully engaged.”
“Nick is a games industry veteran and founded The Games Angels, a collective of industry veterans investing in and supporting early stage gaming companies, as well as being twice nominated as UKBAA Angel of the year.”
