In collaboration with the Pava Marie LaPere Center for Entrepreneurship, Carey Business School is launching the Venture Strategy Program in Fall 2025, offering our students hands-on experience in the Johns Hopkins entrepreneurial ecosystem. Ideal for those interested in consulting, investment strategy, or launching a venture, the program builds practical skills aligned with real career goals.
Students receive specialized training in consulting, startup strategy, and early-stage investment from Carey faculty. Each is matched with a startup in a Pava Center accelerator based on their strengths and interests, gaining direct insight into startup operations and strategic innovation. Opportunities to engage with prominent industry leaders are built into to foster connections and networking.
By program’s end, participants are equipped for high-impact careers in consulting, venture capital, investment strategy, life sciences, or entrepreneurship-ready to advance professionally or launch their own venture. Certificates of completion will be awarded to all participants at closing ceremony.
