New leadership in the EVCC

We have new student leaders in the EVCC. Bobby Brenman and Amy Laverdiere recently took the helm and have recruited an excellent cabinet.

Bobby went to Northwestern University for his undergraduate studies, and worked in sales and trading at Lehman Brothers. After Lehman Brothers, he worked at a boutique consulting firm, before coming to Fuqua. He will be interning at Google this summer. He can be reached at bobby.brenman@fuqua.duke.edu.




Amy went to MIT for her undergraduate studies, and worked at both Genentech and Genzyme before coming to Fuqua. She is a Duke Venture Fellow, and is working for Hatteras Venture Partners through the summer. She can be reached at amy.laverdiere@fuqua.duke.edu.

We are thrilled to have such capable and motivated student leaders for the Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital Club.

Thanks to Jen, Josh, and everyone that helped this year!

Special thanks to Jennifer Artabane and Joshua Payne, the outgoing EVCC co-presidents. They did an outstanding job and should be commended for having a wonderful year leading the club. They led a number of new initiatives, but some of the highlights were the Week-in-Cities program which took place in Silicon Valley, Washington D.C., Charlotte, and Atlanta, the Day in RTP, the weekly newsletter, recruiting a solid first year cabinet, and helping to organize the inaugural Entrepreneurship Week. They were awesome! We will miss them and wish them the best of luck.





The EVCC Second Years

VCIC Competition Internal

Through the hard work of Mike Midgett, Class of 2008, we held our VCIC Internal competition. We had over 15 students participate and compete in this "Be a VC for a day" competition.

It was a great event, and the winning team handled themselves well, particularly when in the firing line of our guest judges which included local VC's and angels.

A wonderful learning experience for all.

Not only does Mike deserve credit for putting on this program, but he also deserves credit for leading the VC101 and VC 102 sessions that helped prepare students for the event. Great job, Mike!
