Join the pi team in a hands-on session as we share our experience of building an investment thesis in DeepTech sectors such as SpaceTech, AI, Robotics, Blockchain and more.
We will focus on developing an investment thesis and identifying the most promising investment opportunities using the thesis. If this excites you and you wish to explore and build a career in VC, then come join us for this session to learn and step into the shoes of an investment professional. Post the talk, we will extend the opportunity to professionals (< 5 years of experience) to submit their own investment thesis for a Fellowship opportunity with pi Ventures.
