The Chicago Booth Angels Network of Chicago and New York (CBAN Chicago & New York ) is a nonprofit, affinity organization founded and run by alumni of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. The group is part of the global Chicago Booth Angels Network.
The Chicago Booth Angels of Chicago and Chicago Booth Angels of New York began operating as one organization in 2024. The combined organization strengthens the University of Chicago alumni community around angel investing, while leveraging the investment power from the two largest alumni hubs of Chicago and New York, and sourcing entrepreneurial ideas from a large geographical area east of the Mississippi.
We believe early-stage companies need smart angels and high-caliber investors to bring capital, expertise, and valuable connections. We exist to support innovative ideas, provide quality education and learning opportunities to our University of Chicago alumni and affiliate members, and promote the Chicago Booth brand.
