What is the Active Investor Widget about and how do i get listed on it?

As seen in the screenshot below, the Active Investor Widget can be found on the right-hand side of the e27 homepage (box highlighted in red). The active investor widget serves as a chance for verified investors to gain extra visibility and brand awareness via e27's platform as the startups in the e27 ecosystem can now easily get connected with investors through this side widget with just one click of the "Request to Connect" button.

These investors are listed on the Investor Side Widget because of their high level of engagement on our e27 platform and their responsiveness to Connect requests from startups. In order to become an active investor, a combination of factors is taken into account. This includes the 2 main factors as follows:

1. Responsiveness to Connect Requests: How responsive an investor is in responding to “Requests to Connects” from startups
   1. QUICK TIP: if an investor has any pending requests sitting in their email/dashboard, the chances of being listed are lower. 
2. Level of engagement on our e27 platform
   1. Level of Profile Completeness
   2. Up-to-date Investment Updates
   3. Website Usage and General activity on the platform 

For all startups out there, here is the chance for you to get connected with the most lively investors in the region! And what’s better, you know for sure now that they are the more active investors out there and will probably be responding to you in a more timely manner.
