Today there are a number of different financing options but few of them are suitable for start-up companies. Business angels are in that case an exception and a suitable investor in these companies. Business angels are individuals who invest in young companies and differ from other financiers in the sense that the collaboration with the company is closer. Business angels are although few in numbers while the young companies often tend to be in most need of funding and has the greatest potential to grow.The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of the cooperation between entrepreneurs and Business angels and to identify which effects the financial gap have on these financial associations.Business angels and entrepreneurs collaboration are hard to interpret and therefore demanded a deeper examination. We thus used a qualitative method consisting of six different interviews in three different cases.The study shows that established collaborations between entrepreneurs and business angel?s seem to be affected by the financial gap to a great extent, which has been expressed in negative consequences.

I denna litteraturstudie har motorcykelklubben Hells Angels studerats internationellt och i Sverige. I dagsläget är Hells Angels etablerade i över trettio länder och grundkraven för medlemskap är att du ska vara minst 21 år, av manligt kön och äga en motorcykel av märket Harley Davidson. Huvudsyftet med studien är att utifrån ett gruppsykologiskt perspektiv öka kunskapen om Hells Angels, men avsikten har även varit att öppna för en diskussion om denna motorcykelklubb inom fältet för socialt arbete. Trots att Hells Angels beskriver sig själva som en demokratisk organisation menar andra källor att det finns en tydlig hierarki och att makten är koncentrerad till ett fåtal medlemmar. Nyrekrytering är en process som sker i flera steg och det har framkommit att det inte heller är helt okomplicerat att avsluta medlemskapet, något som exempelvis socialtjänsten bör ha kännedom om i arbetet med avhoppare. .

The contemporary angel-symbol is deeply rooted in our cultural history, with connotations and implications leading to that inner transitional space where all creative activity takes place. This essay investigates the history of the depiction of angels, visions of angels both ancient and modern, and includes psychological aspects of symbols as such. A closer look at surrounding symbols of angels will hopefully result in a greater understanding of the role of the angel-symbol within the context of visual culture, seen in the light of our own symbolic universe..

Denna uppsats försöker utreda vilken roll etnicitet spelar i det som betecknas som ett gängkrig i Köpenhamn. Hösten 2008 har ett stort antal skottlossningar ägt rum på Köpenhamns gator, och huvudaktörerna är Hells Angels /AK81 och en rad geografiskt baserade gäng.Vårt tillvägagångssätt har varit att analysera mediers och polisens agerande, men vi har också lagt stor vikt vid insamling av material genom intervjuer med respondenter från Blågårdsplads, Hells Angels, AK81 och Black Cobra. Vi har analyserat detta material med stöd av teorier kring hur etnicitet kan konstrueras och utnyttjas, häribland primordial, socialkonstruktivistisk och instrumentalistiska etnicitetsuppfattningar.Etnicitet har spelat en central roll i konflikten. Medier och polis har genom sin framställning av konfliktens parter bidragit till att konstruera etniska skiljelinjer i konflikten, linjer som primärt går mellan ?invandare? och danskar.

För företag som är i behov av externt kapital och extern kompetens med ett stort kontaktnät, kan en affärsängel vara till stor hjälp. I utbyte mot kapital och egen kompetens får affärsängeln delar av det investerade företaget, som den i sin tur förväntar sig få finansiell avkastning på. Författarna har genomfört en kvalitativ undersökning genom att intervjua affärsänglar med syftet att undersöka de investeringsmotiv och investeringsstrategier som de har vid sina investeringar. Författarna ger även en grundläggande sammanfattning av vad affärsänglarna beaktar vid en investering och vad de generellt har för uppfattning av vad det innebär att vara en affärsängel. Slutsatserna som analysen låg till grund för var att det inte alltid är avkastningen som är det viktigaste investeringsmotivet. Att vara delaktig och medverka till de investerade företagens utveckling var ett mer förekommande svar på frågan om affärsängelns syn på investeringsmotiv.

The purpose with this essay is to enlighten the small business´ existence at times of expansion, identify threats and possibilities and also to try to find ways to encourage growth in the small business.To answer our purpose we carried out a literature study to later implement six interviews with small business leaders. We separated the companies into three categories; small business without employees, small business with 2-5 employees and small business with 6-10 employees.We confirm that the main reason why small business leaders think both once and twice before hireing new labour force are because of the high costs. The change in government has so far not given the small business what was promised, but there is still hope for improvement and simplification.The economic part of owning a company has been pointed out as the greatest threat in relation with expansion and the big responsibility in another persons possibilities to earn his/her living is also burdensome. The possibility to take on more work increases with the number of workers, which is positive..
