CA Angel Networks are as unique as the private investors that make them up. CVBI Angel Investor Network is a group of accredited investors (sophisticated investors) who get together to review companies for potential investment. The investments can be made by accredited individuals belonging to the CA network or by the network itself as a limited partnership.
Some angel networks charge a fee to the entrepreneur for the business plan to be reviewed, or for an in-person presentation to be made to the "angels" group and other angel networks don't.

Like CVBI Angel Investor Network, the number of organized angel groups / networks has grown in response to several factors:
- A desire to attract better deals and generate higher returns than angels acting alone
- Social camaraderie among investors.
