Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders in Venture Capital
About the Program
The Rogue Women’s Fund Venture Fellows program is a hands-on, cohort-based fellowship designed to give aspiring venture capitalists from diverse backgrounds real-world experience in sourcing, screening, and evaluating early-stage investments. The program is structured to allow Fellows to manage their own schedules, providing flexibility while gaining invaluable exposure to the venture capital ecosystem and actively contributing to our mission of supporting women-led tech startups.
Our Fellows participate in sourcing potential investment opportunities, engaging in due diligence, and supporting the team in various aspects of venture firm operations. Throughout the program, Fellows will have the chance to work closely with Rogue Women’s Fund’s experienced team members and gain insights into how we identify and support high-potential women-led tech startups. There are two cohorts per year and each cohort has an "experienced" track (for those that are mid-late career) and "student" track (for those post undergraduate school).
