The InSITE Fellowship is a highly competitive leadership development program comprised of exceptional graduate students at top universities, including Columbia, NYU, Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Georgetown, and several medical research institutions. InSITE Fellows and alumni make up a global network of entrepreneurs and leaders in technology and venture capital.InSITE was founded in 1999 with a mission to create a community of passionate leaders who share common values and have the desire, ability, and network to support innovative companies and projects around the nation. We identify talented students from a diverse range of backgrounds and connect them with hand-picked, high-potential emerging companies in a variety of industries. Students meet with founders and company leaders, identify key challenges and opportunities, set deliverables, and complete semester-long projects that contribute to real growth.Each semester, the New York chapter of InSITE receives over 150 applications for eight projects. After careful due diligence, the InSITE community selects those projects it sees as most promising and most viable. Projects vary, depending on the individual company's most pressing need. In the past, fellows have worked on projects centered around the formation of pitch materials, marketing and brand development, product development, consumer research, and pricing strategy, among others.To date, InSITE companies have raised more than $300 million of disclosed funding and have enjoyed many successful exits.
