Event Description
Join us for our next Innovate and Educate event! This event will not only expose STEM-oriented graduate students and post-docs to the role venture capital may play in funding the inventions they are creating in their academic and research programs but will also explain the types of jobs that may be available within the venture capital ecosystem for individuals that have a STEM background. The panel is made up of professionals that work in venture capital that also have PhDs in STEM-oriented subjects. They will share their experiences in funding and supporting STEM-oriented startup companies and share their experiences for how they navigated from PhD scientists to landing jobs in the venture capital industry.
While this program is oriented towards higher-education STEM students and post-docs, it is open to all students or individuals that may be interested in accessing venture capital or finding a job in venture capital!
This free event will be held virtually via Zoom. To register, follow this link.
Panelists:
- Susanna Harris, PhD – Manager of Engagement and Communications, Xontogeny
- Inca Dieterich, PhD – Associate, Arch Ventures
- Scott Alpizar, PhD – Senior Venture Associate, Foundation Venture Capital Group
Moderator:
- Mike Wiley – Vice President, Foundation Venture Capital Group

Jobs related to patent law and intellectual property (IP) rights are booming and right now make up a significant percentage of the United States task force. According to a report titled ‘Intellectual Property and the U.S. Economy: 2016 Update’ released by the U.S. Commerce Department, industries focused on IP contribute to 38.2% of USA GDP, 45.5 million jobs, and 46% higher pay than that obtained through non-IP industries in the private sector.
