In this episode of Venture Central, Michał and Arek sit down with Anna Magiera, Managing Director of ICLUB Global, one of the largest angel investor communities in Europe.

We dive deep into the democratisation of venture capital, exploring how private investors can access global deal flow with tickets as low as $5,000. Anna explains the mechanics of syndicate investing, the symbiotic relationship between ICLUB and TA Ventures, and shares the story behind a recent 22x exit.

We also discuss the mindset differences between investors in Poland and Ukraine, the importance of "market ambition" for founders, and why building a personal brand is non-negotiable in 2026.
