Join us as we kick off the inaugural NYC VC Internship Program with a dynamic launch event bringing together leaders across the venture capital ecosystem, including LPs, VCs, and city & ecosystem partners.
The evening will begin with a special LP/GP AMA & mixer at 5PM featuring leaders at a $1.5B+ single family office, growth equity fund founded by Shake Shack's Danny Meyer, and a VC fund-of-funds focused on underrepresented managers.
This will be followed by an official welcome to the program and opening remarks from key partners such as NYCEDC (Interim President & CEO, Jeanny Pak), Everywhere Ventures (Co-Founder & GP, Jenny Fielding), and CUNY IAR, followed by a celebration of the students, VC host firms, LPs, GPs, city stakeholders, and partners making this initiative possible.
There will be ample time to connect, celebrate, and learn more about this first-of-its-kind initiative in NYC! Food and drinks will be provided.
