Entrepreneurs in the Birmingham, Alabama area rejoice!

The recently announced Birmingham Angel Network is here to help.

Group founder Joshua M. Watkins writes on his blog:

“As has been discussed for several years, Birmingham is in dire need of additional startup capital for our many worthy high growth and high tech businesses and BAN will be a great resource for many of those companies.”

Watkins is Managing Member of the Watkins Law Firm, one of the few firms in the area that works with early stage companies on all manners of financial transactions, and adds he is looking forward to “seeing the group grow and become a powerful driving force in the Birmingham and Alabama economy.”

Companies looking for funding can apply to the group using Angelsoft here.
