OUP Webinar: Ask a VC – 2026
Kayti Mangels / Sep. 28, 2026
Join OUP for our seventh annual ‘Ask a VC’ webinar. In this webinar, our audience had the chance to ask questions directly to OUP’s Life Science Managing Partner, Bill Harrington, and Technology Managing Partner, Marc Singer, on venture capital operations, decision-making, where the investing environment stands today, etc. The session was open to our partner TTOs and academic founders looking for candid insights into how VCs think.
A few areas worth asking about:
- How to stand out in a crowded fundraising environment
- Which industry areas are catching VCs’ attention right now
- Effective ways to get an introduction to a VC
- Advice for first-time academic founders
