Are you eager to break into the dynamic world of Venture Capital? Ready to transform your passion into a thriving career? If you're a student or an early-career professional (0–2 years of experience), you've come to the right place!

But here's what nobody tells you —

Reading blogs, watching YouTube videos, and doing courses won't get you in the door. Because none of them teach you what actually happens inside a VC firm — how deals are really evaluated, how to build a sector thesis, how to talk to a founder without taking over the room, and what the daily work actually looks like.

Most aspirants show up to interviews thinking like a consumer. They don't back info with data, no investor lens. They try to impress instead of listen.

It's not their fault. Nobody taught them how to think like an investor.

That's exactly what I do.

With 10+ years in venture and 2,000+ startups evaluated at Gemba Capital, I've sat in those rooms. I know the moment an aspirant shifts — from performing knowledge to thinking with genuine curiosity and conviction. My job is to make that shift happen faster for you.

In our session, we'll work on:

  1. Investor thinking — how to evaluate a sector, build a thesis, and back it with data
  2. Founder conversations — how to listen, ask the right questions, and add value in the room
  3. Your profile & narrative — positioning yourself for VC roles without an MBA or finance background
  4. Interview prep — deal memos, case studies, sourcing tasks done right
  5. Networking — how to build real relationships in the Indian VC ecosystem and personal brand

You won't leave with generic advice. You'll leave with a shift in how you think.
