Project 1: Sourcing Startups

I identified and evaluated promising startups that aligned with HP Tech Ventures' investment criteria. After thorough research, I shortlisted a company that demonstrated strong potential for deeper analysis, providing my first substantive output as a junior analyst.

Project 3: Synthesizing: From Diligence Data to Actionable Insights

I synthesized my due diligence findings into clear reports that highlighted market opportunities, technology, leadership, and competitive landscape. I created a Synergy Report that illustrated the alignment between the startup and the venture fund, compiling all reports into a cohesive folder.

Project 2: Doing Due Diligence

I conducted comprehensive due diligence on the selected startup, gathering critical data on its operations, market positioning, and financial health. This included competitor analysis and insights from customer feedback, enabling me to assess the company's strengths and growth opportunities.

Project 4: Creating an Investment Memo

In this final project, you’ll integrate all your hard work and insights to produce a concise, impactful 3-slide investment memo. You’ll start by using Claude to draft an initial structure, then transition to refining content through your own analysis and ChatGPT’s support, adding depth and clarity to each slide. With key findings from Google Sheets, you’ll create a professional presentation that captures your company’s strategic strengths, market positioning, and growth potential—building a comprehensive and compelling case for investment.
