Investor Connect Podcast

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.

Should you start an angel network?

Before launching an angel network, assess your community as follows:

  1. Do you have accredited investors interested in startup investing?
  2. Do you have any investors who will take the lead on diligence and investing for each deal?
  3. Do you have a champion who will organize and lead the angel group for the first 2-3 years?
  4. Do you have a flow of startups seeking funding that you can access?
  5. Is there a resource for incubating and educating those startups in the area?
  6. Are there local service providers such as attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, and others who can support the startups?
  7. Are there other investor groups that currently fund those deals in your community to support syndication?
  8. Is there access to follow-on funding for startups?

Research your community to see what currently exists and what must be built.

Check with the local entrepreneur groups to make this assessment and get their potential support for starting an angel group.


Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Let’s go startup something today.

In this episode of Investor Connect, Hall welcomes Heeten Doshi, Founder and Managing Partner at Doshi Capital Management.

Headquartered in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey, Doshi Capital Management, LLC ('DCM') is a private investment management firm, that was incorporated in 2011. DCM relies on its decades of extensive research in understanding different market cycles and the cause-and-effect relationships that drive asset prices. Their strategies seek to capture returns in both up and down markets while minimizing portfolio volatility and downside risk. DCM accomplishes this by creating strategies that provide true diversification—an uncorrelated strategy that diversifies away risk—and downside protection, giving their investors the opportunity to stay invested and generate absolute returns in any market cycle. 

DCM draws on a strong, multidisciplinary skillset, proprietary quantitative models, and decades of experience investing across a broad range of asset classes and multiple market cycles. Their ultimate goal is to generate alpha, however, their focus is to preserve their clients’ capital in any market environment through a distinctive and systematic approach to investing.

Heeten manages the firm’s equity marketing timing strategy, the Doshi Systematic Strategy Fund and was formerly a senior equity strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman, where he focused on the US economy, equity market and provided investment recommendations to global institutional clients including hedge fund, asset management, and pension funds. Prior to that, Heeten worked at Morgan Stanley as an equity research analyst where he conducted deep-dive fundamental company analysis, and at Lehman Brothers where he was a derivatives trader and hedged the firm’s $14bn fixed income portfolio.

Heeten has received two graduate degrees – an MS in Accounting from the University of Illinois GEIS Business School, and an MS in Management from Babson F.W. Olin Graduate School of Business. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Rutgers University and has obtained the CFA designation.

Heeten shares with Hall what excites him now, advises entrepreneurs and investors, discusses how he sees the startup industry evolving, and explains his investment philosophy.
