Next Act Fund is an angel investment network based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, dedicated to empowering women in the financial sphere of startups and growth companies. With its headquarter located at 5850 Centre Avenue, Suite 411, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15206, United States, the fund focuses on infusing capital into women-led or women-owned businesses. The primary investment objective is to create opportunities and jobs by supporting these businesses while enabling investors, predominantly women, to grow their personal wealth through equity investments. Next Act Fund positions its investors to have a substantial impact on the regional economic development while simultaneously advancing the role of women within the angel investment community. The fund's portfolio is guided by the vision of having their investors—members with aligned interests—not just offer financial support but also mentorship and networks to foster the growth of companies they invest in. Though Next Act Fund communicates that they are no longer accepting new applications for funding, as their capital for new and follow-on investments has been deployed, the essence of their philosophy is still rooted in creating a legacy of female empowerment in entrepreneurship which is evident from their references to notable figures like Susan B. Anthony. They value their role in not just facilitating the economic growth in their region but also enhancing the visibility and impact of women in business leadership roles. According to the statement on their website, the organization firmly ensures compliance with legal requirements for investment solicitations and emphasizes that information available does not constitute an offer to sell or a public offering, adhering to investor suitability requirements and exemptions.
