Hi Craig,

My name is Alicia Lau and I oversee the KP Fellows Program at the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins. With over 40 years in Silicon Valley, Kleiner Perkins has been at the center of innovation – investing and building companies like Google, Amazon, Square, Slack, Twitter, Uber, Genentech, and many more.

An important part of building companies is attracting young talent. That’s why we started the KP Fellows program which is a career-defining opportunity for technical students who are interested in pursuing entrepreneurship, technology, and startups. The program offers:
  • An opportunity to receive $100K for entrepreneurial endeavors
  • Meaningful experience at company partners like Slack, Pinterest, Robinhood, Stripe, Figma and more
  • Fireside chats with CEOs and executives
  • Workshops with Investing Partners at Kleiner Perkins
  • An alumni network of 500+ tech leaders across product, design, and engineering
As Department Head & Professor of Computer Science at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, I wanted to ask for your help this year in encouraging your students to apply to be Fellows this year. If it’s helpful, I’ve included an e-mail you can use to forward to students.

All my best,
Alicia
