Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at 50 Partners

Supporting entrepreneurs until success.

Only entrepreneurs know the reality of the journey that every leader goes through before reaching success. The most experienced are therefore the best guides for those who dare to adventure. 

Genuine and structured experience shared alongside solid ressources to support entrepreneurs on critical issues (funding, structuring, international development, etc.) significantly change the chances of success of projects.

It is with this objective in mind that 50 Partners has been developing, for the past 10 years, tailor-made and "lifelong" support programs for the best startups in the Digital, Impact and Health sectors.

Beyond the Partners, we work with a whole ecosystem of investors, large groups, experts and institutions to ensure the success of these companies and the emergence of tomorrow's solutions.
