The North Dakota Department of Commerce announced that three companies received a combined $460,000 in investments through the North Dakota Development Fund Inc.’s Angel Match Program (AMP) during the third quarter of 2025.
AMP supports early-stage, high-growth North Dakota businesses by matching private angel investments with direct equity or convertible note funding. The program is managed by the Development Fund but operates independently from its traditional financing offerings.
“North Dakota entrepreneurs are harnessing innovation to solve real-world problems,” said Shayden Akason, Deputy Director of Economic Development and Finance and Head of Investments and Innovation at Commerce. “Programs like AMP provide capital to develop their solutions and strengthen our state’s economy.”
