Introducing our Fall 2022 Student Batch
At Wingman Campus Fund, we educate students and support entrepreneurs to disrupt the startup culture on campuses, produce the next generation of tech leaders, and create more value for society.
14 students joined our Partner teams
Every semester, Wingman Campus Fund onboards new students onto its Partner teams. This semester, we’re excited to announce 14 additional Partners — 8 female and 6 male & high-potential students from ETH Zürich (ETHZ), EPFL and the University of St. Gallen (HSG).
As part of a 1-year fellowship, in a program that sits at the frontier between a talent accelerator and a student-run VC, the 14 students will be trained by Wingman Ventures and tier-one European VCs, and will be responsible to find and select the 20 startups that Wingman Campus Fund intends to support with initial capital and mentoring in Fall 2022 and Spring 2023.
Our existing Partners Nicolas Kubista (ETHZ), Miya Ferrisse (EPFL), Timoteo Solèr (HSG), Nelson Zürcher (HQ) and Eric Piolot (HQ) are continuing the Wingman Campus Fund adventure for another semester, bringing their experience and learnings to the teams.
