About the programme
Thrive Capital's Summer 2027 Fellowship lets college students explore their own curiosities and develop their ideas with support from Thrive's people and resources. Fellows also contribute to the firm by challenging assumptions, supporting portfolio companies and broadening the firm's view of opportunities. The page gives example projects such as manufacturing printed circuit boards more cheaply, evaluating AI model performance in the real economy, sports-franchise data products, AI tutoring research, and drug-discovery investment theses. Applicants are encouraged to propose their own ideas rather than tailor them to what they think Thrive wants.
