About: Join us for an engaging evening of networking and learning about the upcoming Venture University (VU) Masterclass and Investor Apprenticeship Program, which we are bringing to Houston.
WHY THIS MATTERS RIGHT NOW IN HOUSTON
Houston's entrepreneurial energy is thriving, with 800 to 1,000 startups driving innovation across industries. Yet, the city's venture capital ecosystem remains underdeveloped, with fewer than 20 active funds and fewer than 50 venture capitalists. This imbalance creates a yin-yang dilemma—a wealth of entrepreneurial talent but a lack of local capital to sustain it.
To complete the cycle and keep Houston’s startups scaling locally, we must cultivate more venture investors and fund managers who can fuel the next generation of innovation. If you want to be part of right-sizing this yin-yang balance, join us for this presentation and AMA to learn why you should apply—and how to apply—to Venture University, the world’s #1 investor education program.

The world-renowned Venture University (VU) education and apprenticeship program is dedicated to developing the talent and skills needed to unlock and deploy capital. More than that, graduates from the program will help shape a new generation of fund managers, venture investors, venture partners, and angel investors—trained to identify, evaluate, and fund the best deals while maximizing capital returns for GPs and LPs.
At the same time, by cultivating a pipeline of investment expertise, we’re laying the foundation for expanding access to capital through new VC and syndicate formations, as well as creating the talent pipeline that will be critical for all funds—both new and existing.
This program is not only the perfect starting point for aspiring investors and fund managers but also an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to sharpen their venture investment skills. Additionally, it’s a valuable resource for entrepreneurs and founders seeking to refine their skills and prepare for raising capital.
