Too Long; Didn't Read
One trend I am noticing on Cal’s campus is the growing number of student Deal Scouts, often also known as Brand Ambassadors or Campus Liaison. For those that are unfamiliar, <strong>Deal Scouts are students who are well-integrated within the school’s entrepreneurship ecosystem and selected by venture funds to serve as their eyes and ears on campus</strong>. The idea is that schools like Berkeley are a breeding ground for talented entrepreneurs and engineers, and VCs would greatly benefit from keeping a tab on these student talents who may become the mastermind behind the next big thing.
