Angels are spreading their wings
The Yorkshire Association of Business Angels (YABA) said although the number of companies looking for financial support from business angels shows no sign of falling, people have to be prepared to travel to meet angel networks prepared to invest in them.
YABA manager Barbara Greaves said: “Recent angel investment in companies from Newcastle and Cambridge shows that our members have the appetite to help companies grow and fulfil their potential.

YABA recently invested in mobile m-commerce app builder MobiCart from Newcastle and Cambridge-based microbiological testing company BACTEST.
