Yet the venture industry has largely ignored students when they're in school - choosing to wait until students graduate before funding companies. Massively impactful companies are being created right now in dorm rooms throughout the nation—and Dorm Room Fund is providing this impressive collection of student founders with access to critical capital and mentorship when it matters the most.<span class="blue">"</span></p>

<!-- ____________________________IntroText____________________________ -->
<div id="introtext">
<p class="Bodycopy">Facebook, Microsoft, Snapchat, Yahoo, and Google all started in a dorm room.</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">Five years ago, Josh Kopelman wrote a <a href="http://redeye.firstround.com/2012/09/the-dorm-room-fund.html" target="_blank" class="blue">blog post</a> that discussed the state of student entrepreneurship. Along with those reflections, he announced an experiment called "The Dorm Room Fund."</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">What started off as a pilot in Philadelphia is now a national venture firm that has funded over 150 startups, graduated over 100 investors and operators, and launched a global student entrepreneurship movement that has inspired student-focused funds across the world—from Israel to New Zealand.</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">During the last 5 years, we've had the opportunity to work with entrepreneurial students all across the country. As a result, we've developed a unique vantage point, perspective and knowledge on what students are capable of creating. To celebrate our 5th birthday, we wanted to share these findings with the community at large.</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">We compiled our findings into 4 categories:</p>
<p class="Bodycopy"><span class="underline"><a href="#Portfolio-Highlights" class="yellow">Portfolio Highlights</a></span> — How have DRF-backed companies performed over the last 5 years, and what impact have student-founded startups had?</p>
<p class="Bodycopy"><span class="underline"><a href="#Investment-Locations" class="green">Investment Locations</a></span> — What are the most entrepreneurial universities? Does Silicon Valley remain on top in terms of student startup activity?</p>
<p class="Bodycopy"><span class="underline"><a href="#Industry-Breakdowns" class="red">Industry Breakdowns</a></span> — What industries resonate most with students? How does that compare at the Undergraduate vs. Graduate levels?</p>
<p class="Bodycopy"><span class="underline"><a href="#DRF-Community" class="blue">DRF Community</a></span> — Where do our partners come from? What have our partners done after graduating from DRF?</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">By seeking the answers to these questions and more, we’re excited to share the Dorm Room Fund 5 Year Report.</p>

<p class="Bodycopy">We all read about the Stanford student who drops out to raise a Series A from Sequoia (hey Tanay!), but student founders aren't limited to the top 10 universities. Outside of the known entrepreneurial schools, we've discovered and backed incredible founders from schools like Oglethorpe, UC Irvine, and Cooper Union. Check out the 43 schools we've funded founders from below.</p>

<p class="Bodycopy">Young, hungry, and unafraid of failing, undergraduate students seem to be more entrepreneurial than the rest of the university ecosystem. Representing just over 43% of our investments, the group leads the pack in our portfolio amongst MBA, PhD, and Master's students. MBA candidates are a close second and are catching up quickly, representing just over 39% of our investments.</p>

<p class="Bodycopy">With 31% of our investments coming from the Boston region, we’ve seen Boston rival Silicon Valley in the world of student entrepreneurship. With the cutting-edge research at MIT, the 200+ active startups at Northeastern, and the entrepreneurial spirit of Harvard Business School students, it's no shock that Boston takes the lead here.</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">In 2018, we're looking to launch in a new city. Think your student startup ecosystem is a great fit for Dorm Room Fund? <a href="https://dormroomfund.typeform.com/to/e3FYHB" target="_blank" class="blue">Let us know here</a>.</p>

<p class="Bodycopy">With Penn* and MIT taking the lead in our portfolio, it's interesting to see the contrast between founders at both schools. With the research focus of MIT and the Wharton community at Penn, we've noticed the difference in the problems being solved at both schools.</p>
<p class="Bodycopy">With more technically-challenging products being built at MIT (many hardware & AI investments) and more of an industry-disruption focus at Penn (many healthcare, e-commerce, and enterprise investments), each school has flourished with its own unique strengths.</p>
<p class="BylineText italic">*While Penn is our most funded school, it was also the first school we began actively investing in.</p>

Student entrepreneurship is something we love and care about at Maveron-because creating the next generation of breakout brands (what we think about) is going to require wild new ideas, passion that the previously non existent is possible, and teams of diverse people with different perspectives working together to make it happen. Many of our countries' campuses have that in spades, and often the missing ingredient is people who have seen successful companies' trajectories before to help spur it on.
