Tim Hsia and I began hosting these events last year and the early reviews put us at a Net Promoter Score >90 for each event. For reference >70 is considered world-class.
Last year, we had >450 veterans attend our networking events and another 450 attend a startup conference that we hosted with Context VC.
We’ve heard from dozens of attendees – here are a few outcomes from the events –
► Skillbridge Interships with Startups & PE Funds
►Strategic advisors / mentors for businesses
► Summer internships for MBA students
► Equity funding for veteran startups
► Full-time roles > 6-figures
