Are you an aspiring entrepreneur looking for the resources, guidance, and connections to get your venture off the ground? Lightspeed Venture Partners VIII, L.P. is offering summer fellowships to support entrepreneurship and innovation among highly motivated engineering and CS students.
Each winning team will receive $5,000 per team and $10,000 per team member, mentoring by one of Lightspeed’s investment professionals, as well as office space in Menlo Park, CA throughout the summer of 2010.
Think of it like a scholarship. We provide resources, mentors, and guidance; you pursue your venture free and unfettered. Fellows are under
no obligation to Lightspeed, and Lightspeed receives
no equity as part of the program.
There will be two independent rounds of
applications. Applications are due
