Machine learning (ML) isn’t going anywhere, and the market proves it: the space grew to $21B in 2022, and at a CAGR of 39%, is poised to grow to $210B by 2029. Investors looking at the tech sector need to pay attention to how factors like greater adoption, demand for personalized experiences, advancements in the market, and expansion of related digital content lend themselves to ML startup preference and investability in the space collectively. Like everything under the AI umbrella, machine learning is a growth business. There is no shortage of opportunity, but speed and savvy are paramount when seeking outsized returns in this space.


Man + Machine = Profit

The ML market is growing so fast that investors have to find and seize opportunities at an accelerated rate. And, because of the throngs of investors queuing to invest in this market, misguided investments abound. ML investors need to choose companies that work best for their level of domain experience to enable commensurate ROI. Individual accredited investors can invest on their own, but usually lack the funds and resources to do so at a meaningful level. And, with more innovations in ML being released every day, having an ongoing, seasoned knowledge base about the sector is key in order to invest well with the highest possible ROI. Yet, many investors lack access to these resources.

Angel investment syndicates went mainstream in 2021, and are the remedy for this problem. Accredited investors from all backgrounds benefit from syndicates’ large networks of seasoned finance professionals from any market or career stage, able to guide decision making from a variety of perspectives and sectors within, intersecting with, and outside of finance. Syndicates are the bridge between inexperienced investors and sophisticated ones, and with deal flow sourced from a wider variety of professionals, participating in an angel investment syndicate makes the difference between getting returns and building portfolios fast, and losing out.
