    Most Active Angel Investors — Q3 2026

    Q3 2026 is still in progress — this is a quarter-to-date ranking and will keep changing until the quarter closes.

    David Bonita (6 deals), Anat Naschitz (5) and Carl Gordon (5) led Q3 2026. This is the top 50 angel investors by the number of July–September 2026 funding rounds in AngelBacked's dataset that list them among the backers. For the full window, see the all-time list.

    What a “deal” means here. A deal is one funding round announced in July–September 2026 where this investor appears among the backers listed in AngelBacked’s funding dataset. Each round lists up to six angels, so an investor can be a participant in a round rather than its lead. These counts are not an investor’s total investment activity: rounds where they were not named, undisclosed deals, fund commitments, and secondaries are all invisible to this metric.

    Q3 2026 is not complete. Deals announced later in the quarter, and deals from July 2026 that have not been recorded yet, are missing from these counts.

    Methodology

    Investors are ranked by the number of distinct funding rounds announced in July–September 2026 that list them among the backers in AngelBacked’s dataset. Quarterly deal counts are small by nature, so ties are common — tied investors share a deal count and their order within the tie is not meaningful. Recent companies show up to six of the investor’s most recent rounds. The ranking rebuilds daily; it was last updated August 2026.

    The market behind the leaderboard

    Round sizes by stage, the month-by-month trend, sector mix, and how often angels show up on a round — all from the same dataset.
