10,000 Entrepreneurs seeks to help young adults explore entrepreneurial careers:
10,000 Entrepreneurs (10KE) enables college students to pursue their entrepreneurial ambitions by providing $1,000 grants. We believe the world needs more creators and innovators, not lawyers and investment bankers. We want to help you tap into your passions at your own startup or a fast-growing company this summer.
AVG is a different kind of venture capital company. We make the VC asset class accessible to the millions of accredited individuals who are unable to own a diversified venture portfolio. Since 2014, we have grown from a single fund to more than 100 funds. AVG is routinely listed by PitchBook and Dow Jones as one of the most active venture firms in the world.
We also offer some awesome prizes:
- $1,000 Grants
- 10KE Merch
- Exclusive Networking Events
- Seminars with Special Guests
- Feature in the AVG newsletter
