Venture as a Service

We support the broader Harvard-Westlake Community – students, faculty and administration. Our team consults with other on-campus organizations to design and implement new programs and platforms. We also offer feedback and ideas through student perspectives for students, alumni, faculty, HW parents and friends who need help with their companies and projects.

Network Activation

We are interested in connecting the HW community. We pair interested students with alumni mentors; this might mean getting advice on your latest incubator startup or simply learning about schools, potential career options, or expanding your professional network.
