Investor & Entrepreneur Testimonials
Real quotes from real community members.
As an investor in Chestnut Street Ventures, I have had the opportunity to participate in some exciting early stage companies led by Penn Alums. The co-investors have included a group of elite venture capital funds that I would not have had access to as an individual investor.
Carol Curley
Chestnut Street Ventures Investor

Investing with Bascom Ventures and Alumni Ventures has allowed me to add a strong portfolio of early-stage investments and support fellow Badgers. The fund process makes it easy to get into deals that I would not have access to, nor the time to evaluate all of them.
Gretchen Gilbertson
Bascom Ventures Investor
I always assumed that investing in venture capital would be out of reach for me. Waterman offered a feasible opportunity to invest alongside people way smarter than me and diversify outside of the volatile public markets.
Jesse Bull
Waterman Ventures Investor
We invested in Green D Ventures because we were looking to diversify our portfolio and felt confident that Green D would allow access to quality investment opportunities. While we were initially attracted by the connection to Dartmouth, we ultimately chose to invest because of the varied investments, access to an extensive community of entrepreneurs, and impressive management team.

Green D Ventures Investor
Through Alumni Ventures, Castor Ventures is an amazing opportunity for MIT grads to get exposure to the venture world, and specifically to MIT-helmed startups. This has been a great experience for me and also can be for other MIT grads.
