FAQ
The tax laws that govern non-profits (such as pension funds) that often invest in VC funds make it difficult for those funds to invest in LLCs. Professional investors also generally want to see you giving stock options to employees which is much easier to do with a C-corporation (more about that below).

Overall, the percentage of equity acquired by an angel investor can vary based on several factors but it usually ranges between 15-20%. A higher equity stake doesn't always mean a higher chance of a bigger return.
