It's great to connect here, I'm the Managing Director, Portfolio Success at Founder Institute and I co-lead VC Lab. I'm happy to answer any questions individuals have about the program.

Excited for the third cohort of VC Lab with a refined curriculum. Our goal is to help new fund managers secure commitments from limited partners to complete the first close within six months. The program is free, focusing on Pre-Seed and Seed funds. Enrolling general managers agree to the Mensarius Oath for ethical investing (http://fndri.com/Mensarius).
