Lagos Angel Network Annual Report Dear Angels and Esteemed Partners, Welcome to a productive and impactful 2026 Thank you to our members and partners for your continued trust & engagement to building a stronger early-stage investment ecosystem. Report; bit.ly/LANReport

In angel investing, ownership % matters less than survival and scale. A smaller stake in a growing, profitable startup beats full control of one that can’t make it. Value compounds. Control doesn’t.

Don’t ask, “If I give this founder $10k, what do I get back in 10 years?” Ask, “Is this person worth my time?” At the Lagos Angel Fellowship induction, @TomiDee TD reminded our new angels that angel investing isn’t transactional; it’s relational.

New Angels Emerge at the Lagos Angel Fellowship Finale On Dec 9, we celebrated the graduation & induction of the inaugural Lagos Angel Fellowship cohort a new class of informed, ethical, high-impact angel investors. Huge thanks to our partners and supporters who made it possible

In our ecosystem, capital discipline isn’t a cliché - it’s a survival skill. @kola_aina reminds us that angel investing requires intentionality, not vibes. No spraying money. No gambling. Back the right founders. Avoid the wrong behaviors. VC: youtube.com/shorts/I1ifyni…
