Venture fund launched

The Rady School of Management at UCSD recently launched the Rady Venture Fund, a student-assisted venture capital investment fund — the first of its kind in San Diego.

The Rady Venture Fund will provide a unique, hands-on learning experience for Rady MBAs and other UCSD graduate students and support entrepreneurship, innovation and transfer of discovery into the marketplace.

Rady MBAs will work with investment industry leaders to manage the fund and deploy investment capital to assist in the creation of successful companies. The Rady Venture Fund is funded by donations to the UCSD Foundation.
