About New Mexico Angels

New Mexico Angels is a private membership organization for qualified angel investors. We have quarterly dinner meetings in Albuquerque and Santa Fe, and periodic breakfast meetings in Albuquerque. The current president is John J. Chavez, who also is the President of Tafoya and Brainerd Partners LLC (a nationwide business development consulting firm) and the Vice-President of Business Development at Financial Management Systems (a Chicago based financial services firm).

New Mexio Angels was originally started in April 1999 by George Richmond under the name New Mexico Private Investors, Inc. It consisted of a few members who occasionally got together to hear of a new potentially exciting investment opportunity, and then perhaps to make an investment into the company. Under Georges direction, NMPI grew to become much more organized, become a 501©(6) non-profit organization with established by-laws and Articles of Incorporation, and a Board of Directors. In addition, it became a member of the Angel Capital Association, and began putting on seminars and workshops on investing, prepared by the Kauffman Foundation.

In January 2006, it was decided that the organization needed a face-lift. The Board voted to change the name of the organization to New Mexico Angels, to create a new logo, etc. It was also decided to upgrade our website to make it much more interactive and informative to members. The NMA website now has a password-protected Members Only section, where the members can readily communicate with each other regarding potential investments, easily learn the backgrounds of other members, and post memos. We also have a private submission area for entrepreneurs, that allows us to review and discuss proposals privately. Our membership has grown considerably, and we are New Mexico’s leading angel investor organization.
