About Golden Seeds

Golden Seeds is an angel investor network and venture fund focused on funding women-led businesses across multiple sectors, including healthcare, with a national US footprint of accredited investor members and a fund vehicle for follow-on investing. The goldenseeds.com platform combines an angel network model with a more concentrated fund. For healthcare AI founders, Golden Seeds is a relevant match if you have a woman founder or co-founder leading the business; this is a hard threshold, not a preference. Founders without women in leadership roles should not approach this network. Plausible check sizes from the angel network range from 50K to 500K aggregated across individual member commitments, with the fund vehicle adding selective additional capital. The total round contribution from Golden Seeds-affiliated capital can reach 500K to 1.5M in an active round. Founders building healthcare AI, digital health, women’s health (a particular focus area), or healthcare-flavored B2B SaaS with women founders should approach. Entry path is the Golden Seeds application process on the website, which is genuinely active and reads inbound, alongside chapter-level outreach in cities where Golden Seeds has presence (New York, Boston, Atlanta, Texas, California, others). The firm hosts pitch events and runs structured screening processes; founders should be prepared for a multi-stage application with materials, calls, and presentations. Diligence is rigorous given the angel network model: expect substantive engagement from individual angel members alongside fund-level diligence. The value-add includes mentorship from accomplished women operators, network access, and capital that signals to other investors. Realistic expectations: this is supportive early capital that complements a thesis-aligned lead investor.
