The Angel’s Gate is a reality TV series that gives entrepreneurs the opportunity to pitch their business ideas to some of Asia’s most successful investors.
If you have seen Dragon’s Den, you will roughly understand what the program is. But The Angel’s Gate goes the extra mile by putting the show on TV, web, and mobile platforms, giving entrepreneurs ‘360-degree’ coverage and exposure. So, if you have a really cool business idea and the guts to pitch it to millions of people – and successful investors – then The Angel’s Gate is certainly for you.
Here’s how three different platforms are going to work hand-in-hand:
- TV – Pitch, receive funding from The Angels Gate Fund, and advice from industry giants
- Web – A crowd funding platform for start-ups and also receive advice from industry professionals
- Mobile – Real time updates and interaction for viewers while on the move
The Angel’s Gate is now open for registration, and entrepreneurs can apply here. It is advisable to send in pitches soon as early submissions will stand a better chance to be featured in the show. The Angel’s Gate will go live on prime-time TV in September this year.
The list of judges includes Dr. Finian Tan, Chairman of Vickers Venture Fund (a key investor in Baidu.com, the largest search engine in China), Mr. Sat Pal Khattar, Chairman of Khattar Holdings, Mr. William Klippgen, Executive Director of BAF Spectrum (key Investor in PropertyGuru.com), and Mr. Patrick Grove, Founder and CEO of Catcha Group.
The project sounds exciting and promising as The Angel’s Gate brings entrepreneurship to mainstream Asia. Hopefully it can also encourage more Asian youths to pursue their dreams as entrepreneurs.
