I am thankful to VU for opportunity to… I am thankful to VU for opportunity to get hands on experience in venture capital. Each week we sourced new investments and presented them at weekly partners' meeting. Partners shared their experience and challenged us with questions that helped us to learn and grow more. The program also provided learning sessions, fire site chats with other VCs, and lots of networking opportunities. It is hard to find such a comprehensive program that can teach so much in just a little over two months.
