Fellowship
The 8VC Fellowship is a three-month summer program that pairs top undergraduate computer science students with the fastest-growing companies in 8VC's portfolio. The program provides an immersive rotation combining hands-on startup experience with venture capital exposure, creating a dual learning environment that most internships cannot replicate.
Fellows spend their summer embedded in 8VC portfolio companies while also participating in VC-side programming organized by the 8VC team. This structure gives participants both operational experience at high-growth startups and an understanding of how venture capital firms source, evaluate, and support companies. The fellowship explicitly prioritizes diversity in its admissions process.
