Special thank you to our summer interns, Taleha Aftab and Joy Chen for spearheading this successful event. And thank you to Kim Moore , Glynn Capital and Charles Friedland , Glynn Capital for leading the discussion and offering valuable insights.

• Be resourceful and figure out what you don't know, don’t be afraid to ask questions
• Get experience as an operator to know how a company works from the inside?
• Build a network by being helpful and a value-add to people you meet?
• Focus on thesis driven work and pattern recognition skills to target specific companies
• Be aware of the ecosystem and stay plugged into news

Guests were also able to network and connect with other Bay Area interns while enjoying refreshments at the Glynn Capital office in San Francisco.
