Venture Capitol

As the nationwide labor shortage continues, the need to find and train workers has become more imperative. The U.S. startup ecosystem through innovative investments is creating solutions to enhance education and workforce development.

Show Notes

Between inflation and burnout, the labor crisis has businesses struggling to teach the proper skills, provide adequate resources, and fill open positions. In this episode, we explore how the startup ecosystem is changing education and workforce development and highlights the policies that should be in place to boost VC investment in this evolving sector. 

NVCA’s Senior VP of Government Affairs Justin Field shares the most significant factors that shape our education and workforce systems and how startups are using these factors to expand the labor force through workforce preparation. 

Malvika Bhagwat, Partner and Head of Outcomes at Owl Ventures, explains how startups can position themselves to meet the needs of workforce development and education as they shift through changing times.
