About
“Sandalphon” is the name of the tallest angel – said to be the protector of newborn children (yes, that’s a metaphor for startups), whose most important responsibility is supposedly “to ensure that prayers are answered”. The etymology of the name is loosely translated as “co-brother”. We seek to be a helpful partner to entrepreneurs to maximize the probability of a good outcome for all stakeholders.
Sandalphon invests across the US but with deep roots in Chicago, the Midwest and other underserved markets. We currently have investments in Chicago, Kansas City, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Iowa, New York, St Louis, Alabama, Austin, Toronto and San Francisco
