Community is the New Capital: Angel Investing Through Trust and Solidarity

What if the most valuable form of capital isn’t money — but community? In this episode of Creative Capital Table, Dr. Angelique Johnson sits down with Jill Johnson, CEO of IFEL, to explore how trust, relationships, and solidarity are becoming powerful forms of economic infrastructure in entrepreneurial ecosystems. Together, they discuss angel investing, community-based capital models, and how local networks can unlock funding beyond traditional venture capital pathways.
