Role & Opportunity
This Investment Fellowship is a unique opportunity to gain insider experience and skill-building with a leading specialist VC firm investing in next-generation tech companies in SE Asia and across the Global South. Many past fellows describe this as a highly condensed “MBA on venture capital”. Successful candidates are highly entrepreneurial and self-directed professionals who thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, global startup environment.
You will work closely with the our SE Asia investment team as well as other investment, IR, value-add, operations team members focused on India, Africa and Latin America.
The Investment Fellowship is an opportunity to contribute to:
- Pipeline development support to find promising tech companies across entrepreneurial hotspots in the Global South
- Deal analysis, diligence and closure as we scale up our investment programs
- Investment operations, data collection, analysis, fundraising support and more
- Portfolio value-add and portfolio performance reviews support
- Other strategic global projects
Experience and Capabilities
- Experience working in a SE Asian country in venture capital, finance or an entrepreneurial environment

- Outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal
- Highly motivated self-starter who creates opportunity and operates well with limited oversight
- Passion for learning and excitement for working with a variety of people and
companies.
