This program far exceeded my expectations! I went from zero venture experience to sourcing thousands of companies and leading deals we've decided to invest in. Despite the program being virtual, I was thoroughly impressed by the detail they've put into developing the agenda for 3 months. You get what you put in! It's no walk in the park, but it sure is worth the time, effort, and energy! You'll gain more hands-on experience in VC than you probably would in your first year at an entry-level position in a fund/corporate firm. The main improvement I'd say would be for more interview prep or discussion on the job hunt/recruiting process as a whole. Overall, if you're looking to build an incredible network, learn from the best in the industry, and come out with tangible experience, this is the program for you. The skills you learn are incredible but I'm most grateful for this network and community of people that have prepared and inspired me to pursue a career in VC.
