Introducing Chaac Ventures’ 2022 Summer Interns
At Chaac Ventures, one of our core tenants is engaging with and inspiring the next generation of Princeton founders.
One way we do this is with our summer internship program which gives students firsthand exposure to venture capital, often for the first time.
Throughout the summer, members of our internship program support our team by conducting market research and due diligence, connecting with startup founders and evaluating their companies, sharing insights online and engaging with the Princeton network, and working on projects that help refine Chaac’s investment strategy and connectivity within the community.
To that end, we are very excited to introduce Chaac Ventures’ 2022 Summer Interns.
This year, we selected two applicants chosen from a group of talented students.
