The W Fund
The W Fund is dedicated to making earliest-stage investments to accelerate the success of Washington's most promising technology-based start-up companies. These companies often originate from research institutions and students across the state, leveraging Washington's rich research environment.
What We Do
The Student Venture Associates (SVA) program provides UW students with experiential learning opportunities and valuable transferable skills for careers in private equity and other financial institutions. Students are involved in the operations and investment analysis of a venture fund, conducting comprehensive investment due diligence and preparing investment memoranda.
