Romania​

Romania started to develop its startup ecosystem early in the 2000’s but the first organized group of business angel investors started only later in 2013 when a group of entrepreneurs founded TechAngels. As of today, the number of investors that are part of a business angels club or network is probably above 400, even though a good part of them just recently joined such a group and such, they did not invest yet as business angels.

Besides, the crowdfunding phenomenon is growing in Romania, with SeedBlink leading the way and followed by others like Ronin.
