About NDVC Projects
NDVC offers a series of semester-long projects that offer real-world exposure to the world of venture capital. For those familiar with Notre Dame's SIBC, NDVC projects follow a similar structure (excluding travel).
Project teams partner with leading VC firms to conduct real market research, perform portfolio analytices, and source potential deals.
Being on a project team is a great way to build credible and marketable workplace skills relevant to both venture capital and adjacent industries.
