About

Charlie Songhurst is a former Microsoft head of corporate strategy who led over 80 acquisitions and has since invested in roughly 500 companies, treating angel investing as a way to systematically map the future rather than just seek financial returns. He focuses on edge-of-knowledge investing in spaces where even experts don't have clear answers yet, using pattern recognition from hundreds of startup interactions and emphasizing uncompetitive markets where few others are looking.
