Hey guys,
I'm currently a sophomore in college, and I'm really interested in learning more about finance; however, I think my long-term goal is to either create my own startup / join a startup / work in VC (i.e. all tech/growth-related paths). What are good groups that I should look at that would provide me with such a platform?

The startup / tech group
Join an industry coverage group that you eventually will want to transition into. This is what I did and it was the most logical path
why not go work for a startup instead of becoming a banker so that you can found a startup later
you can fulfill your long term goal by joining a startup now. go intern for a startup. then you can find out if you like it.
