Venture Fellows

Our annual Venture Fellowship brings together high-potential college students from a diverse array of backgrounds – allowing us to create a talent pipeline for the EduLab Capital Partners team and to open the doors to venture for an underrepresented cohort of talent. In addition, we discuss ideas percolating in the top academic communities across the U.S., have an ear to the ground for the student perspective – an important end user in higher education, and build our deals pipeline from college and university hotbeds of innovation.

Meet our Venture Fellows. We are always seeking talent for our next cohort, partners for our fellow’s capstone projects, and companies for our annual pitch competition.

About EduLab Capital Partners

EduLab Capital Partners is an early-stage venture capital fund focused on investing in promising learning technologies companies. Our roots extend from Boston to Tokyo – with a global team of investors, entrepreneurs, operators, industry experts, and financiers. We invest in seed-stage companies at the intersection of education and workforce development, focusing on innovation in and outside the classroom of life. From Pre-K to 12, higher education to alumni development, and corporate recruiting to professional development – we are looking for entrepreneurs who challenge the norms of a system that desperately needs evolution from within. Beyond providing capital, we position our companies and Founders to become the next generation of industry leaders.
