Venture Fellow
The AlleyCorp fellows program is a six-month-long opportunity to gain exposure to venture capital and incubation, build your deal pipeline and network, and meaningfully contribute to the entrepreneurial ecosystem in NYC and beyond.
The program is focused around scouting investment opportunities and building relationships with founders, with potential to contribute across other AlleyCorp projects, including new incubations, social impact and civic engagement initiatives, and portfolio development. Each Fellow will be paired with an AlleyCorp team member aligned to their area of interest for one-on-one mentorship, and will be paid a competitive stipend.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

About AlleyCorp
AlleyCorp is an early stage venture capital fund and incubator, and one of the most active early stage funds in New York.
As an incubator, AlleyCorp originates the idea, hires the team, funds the initial 6-12 months, launches the company, and maintains integral leadership throughout the company's lifecycle. Some companies that have been incubated through AlleyCorp include MongoDB, Business Insider, Gilt Groupe, Zola, Nomad Health, and more. AlleyCorp will also invest in very early stage companies usually as the first seed investor. Collectively, AlleyCorp companies have raised more than $2B in venture capital and employ thousands of people in New York City and beyond. Every company we found fuels a stronger foundation for new ideas and entrepreneurs.
