The DD Vᴏᴛᴇ is a crucial step in the investment process at FKA. Any of our angels who sees value in a startup can bring it to our monthly pitch night. A frank but courteous Q+A sessions follow every pitch. In order that all FKAngels who are limited partners in the partnership can review the proposition we conduct an electronic DD Vᴏᴛᴇ. If we have support from a simple majority then the champion can proceed to diligence with the help of typically four to five other angels.

October 2015, FKA's Pitch Night #015 @ KPMG, Auckland offices. A splendid sabrage to celebrate the formal inception of the KPMG+FKA Partnership. A bottle of champagne is beheaded by FKA's sword and KPMG's hand. Chris Chandler and Rudi Bublitz were filmed in the act by Sam Lee of meMINI Cameras.
Running an angel group is much like herding cats. No better video to talk about this than the 'Cat Herders' Super Bowl TV ad of 2000 from EDS, a global business and technology services company, now part of HP.
"Since winning the prize we had a celebratory dinner and a first follow-on meeting when they connected us with the ex-CEO of Footlocker US, Ron Halls. Great insights from Ron and we will recalibrate our approach for the prototype that we will run with Shoe Clinic."
