Dream Shakerz Weekly Shakedown 6-19-21

In this episode, we'll be connecting with Traron L. Edwards, a current Investor at Silicon Valley Bank and former Research Associate at Wellington Management. Traron is also an HBCU alum that obtained his bachelor's degree in finance from Winston-Salem State University. During the show, he explained how he was introduced to the world of investing, why and how he ultimately pivoted into venture capital, and the importance of assessing global and local social trends as a VC to identify the next set of generation-defining companies. As always, we'll also be sure to cover this week's opportunities for BIPOC students in the Level-Up!-Product Management Fall Internship @ Lucid MotorsInternship Location: Newark, CALink: https://bit.ly/3wPXwZaProduct Management Internship @ Porsche DigitalProgram Locations: Palo Alto, CALink: https://bit.ly/3gNh9f8Venture Capital Investment Analyst Fall Internship @ Meta Prop NYCInternship Location: New York, NYLink: https://bit.ly/3vGmDwg-Dream Shakerz IGLink: https://www.instagram.com/dr3am_shakerz/
