Decacorn Angels is a global angel investment network founded in May 2024, operating with a vision to support early-stage businesses developing innovative products and solutions to solve real-world problems on their path to becoming decacorns—companies valued at over $10 billion. With offices strategically positioned in San Francisco, Istanbul, London, and Dubai, Decacorn Angels bridges the gap between innovative startups and visionary investors through a sophisticated digital platform and database that accelerates the investment process. The network is led by CEO Duygu Eren and comprises over 50 individual angel investors and 10 corporate investors, including seasoned entrepreneurs who have successfully exited their companies and professionals from various industries. Since its inception, Decacorn Angels has invested in early-stage ventures, primarily focusing on pre-seed to Series A funding rounds, with investments totaling $133.6 million across technology-driven startups from Turkey, the Turkish diaspora, and global ecosystems.

Decacorn Angels distinguishes itself as a new-generation angel investment network offering 360-degree services beyond capital provision. The platform organizes two monthly investor-entrepreneur meetings, reviews over 100 startup applications monthly, and has completed investments in ventures including Viseur AI, PulpoAR, and Exin Health. Through its DecaClub initiative, the network provides exclusive investor members with access to entrepreneurship hubs like Silicon Valley, foreign investor networking opportunities, and participation in special global events and hackathons. Additionally, Decacorn Angels operates a "Startup for Corporate" program that collaborates with Turkey's leading corporations to facilitate strategic investments and partnerships, while offering consulting services on innovation, internal entrepreneurship, and corporate transformation. The network adopts a sector-agnostic investment thesis with a strong focus on deep technology, emphasizing not only financial returns but also the societal and global impact of supported ventures.
