About the program
The RippleX Fellowship is recruiting for Cohort 13 starting in January!
The program is an education-first experience that democratizes venture capital and startup building to underrepresented students across North America. Throughout the school semester, roughly 20–25 students will be brought together with the common interest of becoming better equipped as founders, VC’s, and employees at startups. It builds the skillset, knowledge, and network that otherwise are rare to acquire as a student.
Why apply
Over the course of the past ~4 years at the RippleX Fellowship, we’ve helped nearly 300 underrepresented students on their journey to becoming venture-backed founders and venture capitalists at some of the top firms in the world. In each of our cohorts, we’ve achieved at least 50% gender diversity and 90% ethnicity diversity.
To date, our alumni fellows have raised over $50M in cumulative funding after going through our program and we have helped place 30+ students into part-time or full-time roles in venture capital!
We have always supported our students with a different approach to other initiatives in the ecosystem led by venture firms; we focus on providing education and community for underrepresented students.
We don’t ask students to find the coolest companies on campus (even though they do end up sharing them naturally). The only thing we ask of students is to come with questions, an open mind, and a positive attitude.
We teach students a strong set of fundamentals for building companies and investing in them. This includes material on teaching how to conduct customer interviews, securing your first customers, creating your first startup budget, reading through term sheets, and more.
