​

1-to-1 Mentorship

Our program offers 1-to-1 mentorship with venture capitalists in various areas of investment thesis focus and stage. Our bespoke mentorship program allows our members to meet a minimum of 2x per month with their mentor in order to understand and learn more about the technical components and inter-workings of venture capital that has typically been identified as a black box. 

​

Peer-to-Peer Workshops

Our program offers virtual workshops for our members that take place once a month during the cohort. Presented by a venture capitalist in our network, each virtual workshop will dig into specific topics, such as understanding valuation, the VC interview process, thesis development and investment memo creation. Each workshop is highly interactive with time allotted for Q&A.

​

Curated Networking

While our mentorship program matches our members to one mentor in venture capital, our program offers curated virtual coffee chats with 1 to 2 other mentors in the program. Our slack group and small cohorts also offer our members to meet others trying to understand or break into VC. It's our mission to help both our members and mentors in each cohort build upon their network and create community.

"I applied to be a part of the Women Venture Capitalist program right when I was embarking on the recruiting process. WVCs Mentorship Program puts you in a cohort with peers sharing similar goals and interests, which was very helpful and motivating. Your cohort peers, as well as Eugene and Meg themselves, are so supportive and encouraging. And finally, I was paired up with an incredible mentor, who dedicated time weekly to sync up with me and answer numerous questions about recruiting, VC careers, start-up fundraising among many other topics. I am so thankful for everyone - my mentor, my cohort, Eugene and Meg - for all they did! I couldn't have done it without the WVCs community."
