Deadline: 18 October 2023
Submissions are now open for the True Ventures Fellowship, an opportunity for students to experience and learn about entrepreneurship and venture capital.
True Ventures are not an accelerator or an incubator. Rather, the hope is to provide students with the opportunity to learn new skills, gain experience, and develop their future networks.
Is the fellowship paid?
- Absolutely. Fellows receive salaries at a competitive market rate.
When and where does the True Ventures Fellowship take place?
- The 10-week fellowship takes place over the summer from early June to mid-August each year. All fellows are paired with participating True Portfolio companies.
- They host the fellowship in a hybrid-work format, meaning part of the fellowship is in person with the team and part is held virtually.
Who should apply to the True Ventures Fellowship?
- The fellowship is designed for rising college juniors and seniors who are currently enrolled in undergraduate institutions or pursuing professional journeys of some kind. Applicants should also have a passion for innovation and entrepreneurship.
- At the time of application, you must either be an enrolled college junior or senior, or a young professional who has not chosen a traditional path toward higher education. You must be eligible to work in the United States without sponsorship.
How many True Fellows are accepted each year?
- They generally hire 12-15 fellows for each summer program.
- They want to create an environment that gives you close and intimate access to speakers, the True Founder community, the True team, and to one another. The size of the class is, in fact, one of the program’s strongest assets, as it will allow you to build meaningful connections and create the foundation for lifelong relationships.
