Position GradFUTURES Learning Cohort Participant Bio/Description Kim Worthington is a Ph.D. student in History and a participant in the American Higher Education GradFUTURES Learning Cohort. "Being part of Princeton University’s groundbreaking GradFutures professional development initiative as a member of the Venture Capital & Startups Learning Cohort has been an invaluable experience. Princeton alums Jim Cohen and Mark Poag are leading a very engaged interdisciplinary group of grad students through the framework and nomenclature of Venture Capital. As a founder of two early stage start-ups, it has been exceptionally useful understanding the stages and expectations for successful business development. Jim and Mark have also been helpful in identifying pitfalls and opportunities for Founders." The GradFutures program unlocks a broad range of penetrating insights from graduate students as its appeal across disciplines and fields attracts faculty, campus administrators and alums committed to revealing the full potential of being part of the Princeton University community.
