Best career move I made! - When I was interviewing I made sure my diligence on the program was thorough. I spoke with past cohort members and did my own analysis of pathways to break into Venture Capital. After going through the program I can say it was worth every penny as I got to meet great fellows, acquire knowledge about the industry in a comprehensive and digested way, spoke to over 100 start-ups, networked with 20+ investors, and developed sharp investment skills that are transferable to other asset classes as well. Venture Univerisity's investor accelerator program is an incredibly effective way to have a shot into the VC industry. I strongly recommend this program for experienced professionals that are looking for career pivots into VC, nonetheless, it is a great program at any stage of your career.
