How do angel investors invest?

Some of these investors provide funds through a limited liability company, business, trust, or investment fund. They typically invest in the entrepreneur instead of the viability of the business and consider the return they may get in the future rather than immediate profits. Angel investors may invest alone or as a part of a larger group.
