Strategic Partnerships Intern at Valenture Institute

Requirements

• What’s needed from you is an ambition to grow your business development skills and apply them in a fast-paced, ever-changing industry. Given the startup nature of what we are doing, we explicitly value speed to decision making over perfection, and we take a “fail fast” approach to learning and improving.
• Furthermore, a desire and openness to receiving and providing feedback is important as you look to improve your skill set and we look to improve our business processes and our offering. A hunger and desire to learn on the job and contribute in a meaningful manner will be a huge asset. Ideally someone with an Undergraduate degree in Business Management or Marketing and an interest in startups would be most suitable.
• During your internship, you will report to the General Manager who will coordinate your involvement within the business development department including the acquisition and nurturing of new and existing partnerships. The General Manager will be your go-to on progress tracking and communication.
