The Clean Energy Internship Program provides MA startups with a consistent pipeline of high-quality student talent to help them build their business.
Joaquin Dufeu, a student at the MIT Sloan School of Management, participated in the Clean Energy Internship Program’s summer 2017 round. Through the program he was able to complete an internship at Rhapsody Venture Partners, a venture capital and private equity firm that specializes in scientific innovation. “Programs like this one are very appreciated, as it enables students to pursue summer internship opportunities that wouldn’t exist without this kind of support,” Joaquin said.
