Arlan Hamilton
Founding Partner, Backstage Capital
In 10 days, I gained more Silicon Valley insider connections than I would have in 6 months or more on my own. 500 has truly found a way to accelerate the work of emerging fund managers much as they've done for thousands of startups.

This program brought clarity to how I can most effectively run a Venture Capital firm, more so than any blog, book, mentor, or past experience ever could.
