"I found all the teachers really amazing and the cases very insightful and useful. For example, we explored creative tools to solve the bottlenecks that often come up in venture capital negotiations."

"This was a great, condensed primer on Venture Capital with an excellent combination of theory, case studies, hands-on exercises, and real-world insights from both VC practitioners and entrepreneurs."

"I found the course extremely relevant. It not only gave me a strong foundation to invest in startups, but it also helped me greatly to plan the next step in my career. I joined Sparking Capital, a VC fund based in Romania, and together with my two partners we are contributing to the growing Romanian entrepreneurial ecosystem. Participating in the program was life-changing!"

"One of the things that I valued most about the program was the quality of my fellow Students and the rich network that I was able to create. In fact, one of our recent cross-border investments resulted from a collaboration with another participant in the program."
