## What Rutgers Ventures is

- A community, not a fund, accelerator, or formal program.
- Three engagement paths for community members:
  1. **Advise** — Rutgers alumni mentor Rutgers-affiliated founders on product, sales, hiring, fundraising, and domain-specific topics.
  2. **Pitch** — Rutgers-affiliated founders submit their company for introductions to advisors and investors in the network.
  3. **Invest** — Rutgers alumni back vetted Rutgers-founded startups via the Whiteboard VC syndicate on AngelList.
- Community access point to the broader Rutgers alumni network (Rutgers University reports approximately 600,000+ alumni across its New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden campuses).

## Who can participate

- **Advisors:** Rutgers alumni with operating experience in product, sales, hiring, fundraising, engineering, design, or specific industry verticals.
- **Founders:** Companies with at least one Rutgers-affiliated founder (alumnus, faculty, or current student) on the founding team.
- **Investors:** Rutgers alumni who invest directly or via the Whiteboard VC syndicate. Alumni investors may list themselves publicly in the open investor directory.
