Monday 26 October, 2026 The Gay Investor Network, the UK's first UKBAA-accredited angel investment syndicate for the LGBTQ+ community, held its launch event on Wednesday 21 October at 22 Bishopsgate, hosted by law firm Cooley. 140 founders and investors attended, with standing room only in the theatre, and the network used the night to announce its first completed investment. A first investment: £100,000 into Atlian The GIN's members have invested £100,000 in Atlian, a London AI company whose software spots every construction project in Britain from the moment it is planned and puts it in front of the brokers who insure it. The pre-seed round was led by Fuel Ventures, alongside SyndicateRoom's Access EIS and angel investors including Chris Mairs CBE, co-founder of Metaswitch. Atlian's founder, James Buckley-Thorp, started his first business with £40, built it into a Sunday Times Fast Track 100 company and sold it in 2016. He went on to found Bequest, Britain's first life insurance app, and was an early team member at Zego, Britain's first insurtech unicorn. He was named a Gaingels Top 100 global VC-backed founder in 2024. Why the network exists Research by Proud Ventures found that three in four UK LGBTQ+ founders are not comfortable sharing their identity with every investor they meet, and a quarter would not share it with any investor at all. The same report found gay male founders raised 22 times more than lesbian founders, and cis men 2.5 times more than cis women and 10 times more than trans founders. Mark James, who founded The GIN after 25 years in business and a decade as an angel investor, felt he had to choose how much of his identity to show in investor meetings while building his previous company. The GIN was set up so that LGBTQ+ founders can pitch to investors who understand them, and so that LGBTQ+ professionals with capital have a route into angel investing. The syndicate has screened over 100 pitches and made its first investment within six months of the syndicate opening for pitches. The network has also launched SIX, a free six-month course for people who have never invested before, built on the principle that angel investing should not be reserved for the wealthy. The GIN's LinkedIn group has more than 2,000 members. The launch night Come Out & Connect brought 140 LGBTQ+ founders, investors, lawyers and fund managers together at Cooley's offices at 22 Bishopsgate. A panel on building a more inclusive venture ecosystem featured Anna Colombatti of Diversity X Ventures, Harry Briggs of Astanor Ventures and James Buckley-Thorp of Atlian, chaired by Peter Wozny, Head of Legal at Btomorrow Ventures and a member of The GIN team. The evening included West End performers and drag artists from X&N Live, and goody bags filled entirely with products from LGBTQ+-founded businesses. Everyone involved in the night, from the organising team to the photographer and performers, gave their time for free. The network has been self-funded by its founder throughout its first year, with no marketing budget. What comes next The GIN is looking at expanding across the UK, with angel hubs planned in Brighton, Manchester, Cardiff and Edinburgh. Its aim is to become one of the largest and most diverse angel syndicates in the UK. Mark James, founder and Syndicate Lead, The Gay Investor Network, said: "Three out of four LGBTQ+ founders in this country are not comfortable sharing their identity with every investor. A founder who spends their time editing their own story is bad for business and bad for returns. The GIN exists so that every founder and investor can be comfortable showing their true selves. "We wanted our first investment to show exactly what our members can back: a founder who has done it before, going after a huge market that technology has barely touched. Atlian is that company. And we wanted our first event to show what this community looks like when it gets together." James Buckley-Thorp, founder and CEO, Atlian, said: "It was easily one of the best networking events I've been to in a long time. Mark is building a great community with The GIN, and I'm proud that Atlian is its first investment. Construction is one of Britain's biggest industries and one of the last still insured by phone, email and PDF. Having investors behind us who understand both the opportunity and the founder matters." Russell Anderson, Partner, Cooley, said: "It was a pleasure to host The GIN's first event and we look forward to supporting and collaborating with the network as it grows."

By Jim Wyckoff, Benzinga DETROIT, MICHIGAN - October 26, 2026 - The artificial intelligence (AI) revolution is unfolding at warp speed, with updates being announced at a high frequency – creating potential catalysts for sophisticated investors to capitalize on regularly. Now, traders have a new way to capitalize on that momentum: an innovative trading tool designed to potentially deliver amplified exposure to some of the key companies driving the AI economy. The MicroSectors 3× Long MANGOS+ ex Private Companies (NYSE: MNGU) exchange-traded note (ETN) provides 3x long exposure to the daily performance of the New York Stock Exchange MaNGoS+ Index (Index), which is a rules-based, equal-weighted benchmark of 10 U.S.-listed companies at the center of the AI economy. It’s a daily-resetting trading tool that utilizes the potential benefits of leverage and was created for sophisticated investors interested in the AI revolution. The MNGU ETN was launched in August by REX Shares and issued by the Bank of Montreal (BMO). Importantly, MNGU is designed as a daily trading tool and not a buy-and-hold investment because leverage resets daily, so returns over any period longer than one day will differ from three times the return of the NYSE® MaNGoS+ Index. Also, losses compound the same way gains do. A choppy, sideways market can produce losses as a result of the daily reset mechanism. The effect increases with index volatility and with the length of the holding period, so this is an instrument you’ll need to track over the trading day. MNGU is a trading instrument for investors looking to place leveraged trades who understand the risks. What Does MNGU Track? MNGU is designed for active traders' short-term bullish view on the companies driving the AI boom. Rather than investing directly in one company, it groups a handful of major AI-related businesses into one trading vehicle. The “3×” feature can magnify gains when the underlying index moves in the right direction, but it can also magnify losses when it moves against the trader. The NYSE® MaNGoS+ index, itself, is concentrated. It holds 10 constituents, equally weighted at 10% each on each quarterly reconstitution. A concentrated basket of this size can be more volatile than a broadly diversified index, and the performance of any single constituent has a material effect on the level of the Index. That concentration is amplified by the 3x leverage factor. The six named anchors for the index are heavy-hitters. Every anchor that meets the qualification requirements is selected for the Index. Anthropic PBC and OpenAI Group PBC are private as of the Index launch date and are therefore ineligible to be included. They do seed the supply chain search but can only be included following their listing date if they satisfy the applicable Index eligibility requirements. The lowercase letters in MaNGoS denote these two private anchors, and the ETN only includes common stocks, ADRs and GDRs listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, NYSE American, NYSE Arca or Cboe BZX. How Do Companies Get In? Each anchor for the Index must carry a float-adjusted market capitalization of $5 billion or more, a six-month average daily traded value of $100 million or more, a free float of 5% or more, a positive trailing 12-month price-to-sales ratio and at least 60 calendar days of active trading, 14 calendar days for a qualifying ADR whose home market line has traded for at least 365 calendar days, or five index business days for a MaNGoS+ security. The Index looks at companies that are customers or suppliers of its major AI “anchor” companies. These candidates are ranked based on their AI-related revenue exposure. AI-related revenue is the money a company makes from selling artificial intelligence products, services, or infrastructure such as AI-optimized servers, accelerated-compute systems, GPUs, networking gear, cloud-based AI services, machine learning platforms, AI-driven sales, marketing or supply chain solutions, etc. The highest-ranked companies are selected to bring the Index to 10 constituents, each of them receiving an equal 10% weighting at the quarterly rebalancing. If too few companies qualify, the threshold can be lowered to reach the 10-company target. Trading Your Convictions On AI With MNGU MNGU is a daily trading tool focused on the continually evolving leaders of the artificial intelligence economy. If you’re a sophisticated trader looking for leveraged exposure to AI trends through a basket of 10 key names that are at the center of the AI economy, head over to the fund’s page to learn more.
