application process

An application to ATIF is comprised of several documents.

  • The central document is the ATIF Investment Candidate Template. This format must be completed and the issues in it addressed. The usual way to start is to cut and paste your business plan into it. Some elements, such as financial projections, can be attached.
    • There may be some questions that you have not addressed before. These are intended to prompt more thinking on topics that are critical to us as investors.
    • There may be some questions for which you have only partial answers. Please tell us what you do know, what you do not know and your plan to complete the response.
  • An Executive Summary of your business plan or the ATIF Investment Candidate Template.
  • A PowerPoint presentation on your business.
  • Anything else you choose to provide, which may include your business plan, videos, or other materials.

When you are ready to submit these materials, follow the Apply to ATIF link, reachable from several places on our website. This will take you to the ATIF section of Gust.com, a secure, partitioned document sharing site that we, as do many angel groups, use. You will be asked to complete a simple form and then given the access to post the documents you are submitting. Only you and the registered members of ATIF have access to this site.

You may update or change or add documents at any time.

Until our screening begins, that’s all you have to do.
