Connecting angel investors with startups from Bosnia & Herzegovina and the Western Balkans

Bosnia and Herzegovina Business Angel Network is a growing community of private investors supporting early-stage startups across BiH and the Western Balkans. Initiated in 2022 with the support from Foundation 787, BHBAN offers a structured path for angel investing – through curated pitch sessions, expert guidance, and opportunities for syndication.

Our mission is simple: to make angel investing more accessible, impactful, and connected – locally and across the region.

SOME VOICES
FROM THE NETWORK

BHBAN and Foundation 787 are a breath of fresh air in the local capital market where most standard investment practices are largely unavailable. This well-coordinated team is doing everything it can to change that — through public education, the application of best international practices, and hands-on work with startups. I look forward to continuing this journey with them.

BHBAN provides excellent opportunities for investment, mentorship, and strategic partnerships. The network connected me with innovative startups in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the region, and I’ve already invested in a promising startup from Serbia. I highly recommend this network to anyone looking to invest in the future of the region.

Amra Začina
Co-founder & CMO @ Ministry Of Programming

I truly believe that BHBAN is one of the most important initiatives for developing the startup ecosystem in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is a key piece of the puzzle if we want to build a serious startup ecosystem — because without it, ideas remain just ideas. That’s why I’m glad to see BHBAN building a community, connecting with networks and investors from the region, and laying the groundwork for what’s to come.
