More About This Event
The Harvard Business School Association of Northern California and other Bay Area Harvard Clubs are excited to announce the 2021 One Harvard New Venture Competition (1HNVC). 1HNVC serves as a launch pad for innovative new ventures from HBS and Harvard alumni, providing access and exposure to potential investors, mentors, and advisors. This annual competition was started for HBS alumni over ten years ago by the Harvard Business School’s Rock Center for Entrepreneurship and Alumni Clubs & Associations. Two years ago in the Bay Area, we expanded this competition to include alumni of all Harvard schools. Competing startups were offered multiple mentoring sessions, introductions to other mentors and investors, and networking opportunities at our 1HNVC networking events in January and February. Furthermore, they had the opportunity to compete for cash prizes and access over $1 million of sponsored in-kind benefits.
