Village Capital

2017 Summer Internship

Village Capital
The way we invest in new ideas is broken. Billions of dollars go to the hands of a few people, in a few US states, who then tend to invest in people in their networks and ZIP codes. The outcome: entrepreneurs aren’t solving the most important problems in society, such as health, education, energy, agriculture, water, financial inclusion.
 
Village Capital is on a mission to change the status quo, reinventing venture capital by sourcing, training, and investing in entrepreneurs solving challenges critical to the future of society. We build communities around entrepreneurs ensuring business success. Our core innovation—a peer-selected investment model—delivers better results for both entrepreneurs and investors.
