As we have recently launched EV II, our new VC fund, we have crafted a fresh corporate program structure aimed at fostering synergies, rapid learning and valuable knowledge exchange among participants. This July, we welcomed four experts from our corporate sponsors, Raiffeisen Bank International AG, Raiffeisen-Holding Niederösterreich-Wien and Raiffeisen-Landesbank Steiermark, for a 1-week-long long intensive Venture Capital experience in our day-to-day processes and investment activities. Highlights of the week included: 📚 Immersive workshops and learning sessions on #VC topics 🌐 Visit to Speedinvest and exchange with Oliver Holle, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, as well as other investment managers 📝 Hands-on teamwork case study on startup valuation and cap table analysis 🥂 Informal networking & mingling events with the EV team The week concluded with final presentations by the participants showcasing the results of their team work on the startup case studies. The presentations opened the floor for Q&A, feedback from the EV team and further discussions. The synergy between Elevator Ventures and our corporate sponsors not only enhances our investment strategies but also fosters a culture of continuous learning between us and the banks. 💬 "Being part of the 1-week 'Experts-in-Residence' program hosted by Elevator Ventures was a unique and exciting experience. The program provided valuable insights into the world of venture capital, especially in the Fintech & Beyond Banking area, covering the investment process and valuation approaches. Thanks to the fantastic team of Elevator Ventures experts, who were eager to share their know-how and experience, I gained invaluable knowledge and connections.", as stated by Vladimir. A big thank you to all of our participants for their contributions: Vladimir Grudev, Christoph Keidel, CFA, Markus Meister and Fabian Kaufmann! 🤝 We look forward to continuing this program and to welcoming many more experts in future editions of EiR!
