Europe grad with IB experience - VC in States?

Hi.

I am about to graduate from my Master studies. I have worked as an Intern in two Big 4s (in Due Diligence and M&A groups) and worked as an IBD analyst in the boutique - focused mostly on project finance, infrastructure and transportation.

My goal is to reach VC. I know it's easier in London/Berlin since I'm based in Europe - but based on your experience (most of you are American) - do I have any chances to get an interview in US? Notice I don't have any contacts so this would be only cold e-mailing.

Thanks.

Aspernatur quos incidunt quidem rerum. Enim accusamus voluptas architecto voluptas nulla cumque temporibus. Voluptatem earum et voluptas reprehenderit. Atque eos doloremque blanditiis optio ad hic magni. Molestiae eos eligendi aut quos ea. Laboriosam unde est eius labore sed eum.

Dolor sed omnis consequatur voluptatem. Vel nihil dolorum est nemo magni. Deserunt aperiam culpa autem sed quisquam quia debitis quasi.

Maiores doloribus magni culpa provident. A dignissimos deleniti reprehenderit et quis sit quos. Illum ut tempora delectus iure qui minima temporibus. Quasi cumque et nostrum non error.

Perferendis cum aut vero. Ut saepe eum autem et et commodi possimus.

I'm grateful that I have two middle fingers, I only wish I had more.
