As part of this competition, any aspiring or new fund manager can submit an investment thesis for their fund, and the best theses will be selected to pitch live and online on Tuesday, October 20th to an audience of LPs and others in the venture community.
The best thesis will win admission to the premier venture capital firm accelerator, VC Lab, as well as $10,000 worth of premium support and office hours in the VC Lab program.
