A unique Montana-based investment network.
Generating returns for our investors, our communities, and all Montanans by accelerating the growth of the tech ecosystem
About Frontier Angels
Frontier Angels is a group of ~100 people from across the state of Montana who gather every few weeks for breakfast or dinner in Billings, Bozeman, Missoula, or Kalispell to review investment opportunities in the emerging technology ecosystem. Most of our members are current or former entrepreneurs or C-level executives in multinational companies. Their depth and breadth of expertise helps emerging companies develop the right strategies and make the connections they need to grow and thrive.
We’re a friendly group, working together with talented entrepreneurs and our ecosystem partners to create the companies that will be the foundation of the next economy.
Our Goals
- Generate attractive returns for our investors;
- Build and organize the pool of available early stage capital to make it easier for entrepreneurs to get funded; and
- Invest in companies who will grow to become the new foundations of the next economy and create high-skilled, high-paying and sustainable jobs in our communities.
