Poseidon Fellows Info Session: Hear From the First Cohort
Poseidon Fellows is UC San Diego's flagship entrepreneurship fellowship. Twelve students are handpicked each year for mentorship, investor access, and a curriculum on company-building taught by people who have done it.
Thinking about applying for 2027? Hear what the year is really like from the twelve fellows who just finished it - the good parts and the hard parts. Then ask them anything about the fellowship or the application.
You don't need a startup idea to come or to apply. The fellowship is open to every UC San Diego student.
Applications close on November 12. Apply at poseidonfellows.com.
Agenda
• What Poseidon Fellows is and who we're looking for, from Shawn Xu (Partner, Lowercarbon Capital)
