Industry groups in Austin

Austin's networks are young, founder-led and dense for a city of its size. The Central Texas Angel Network publishes its dues and is one of the larger angel groups in the country; EO, TIGER 21, R360 and Hampton all run Austin groups; and several paid masterminds and founder communities hold their events in the city. Because so much of the membership is technology and post-exit, the investor peer communities and the virtual founder networks are a natural complement to the chapter organizations.
