NVP Essentials Venture Capital - Spring

‘My colleagues have often told me that I should follow the NVP Venture Capital Essentials. I'm glad I finally did. It was very nice to meet so many new people. You can share experiences with each other and collaborate. In addition, it was also very pleasant.’’

Contents
During the Venture Capital Essentials training you will go through the entire VC investment process. The training consists of thirteen modules. In these modules, together with experts from national and international VC funds, you will delve deeper into the topics that are discussed during the investment process. The training offers room for interaction and, if possible, we focus on practical examples as much as possible. The training also offers sufficient opportunities to meet colleagues in an informal manner who, just like you, work within the Venture Capital sector.

Next to the ‘hard-skills’ you need in your work, you will develop yourself as a professional through intervision. Through practical cases you evaluate how you behave and what impact this has on the people around you. In the Essentials you do not only learn all about the industry, but you can also reflect on the influence of your behavior. Next to this you will build a fantastic network within the industry. 

The speakers are of the highest quality and specialists in their field of work. As a member or associated member of the NVP they know exactly what you need as a participant to do your job in the best possible way. 

At the end of the program, you will present a group-case to the investment committee. These are experienced professionals in the industry, whom will give you relevant feedback on the investment proposal and where you can bring all you learned into practice!
