1435 Capital Acceptance

In May 2025, Ansh Vasani was selected as one of four summer analysts at 1435 Capital Management, chosen from a pool of more than 400 applicants. To his knowledge, the program is the only opportunity of its kind for high-schoolers, providing analysts with real-world experience inside an active, $2.5B+ AUM venture fund alongside the firm's full-time team.

The role itself is industry-agnostic and spans the full venture stack, from Seed through Series C, plus secondaries. Day-to-day, Ansh will contribute across deal sourcing, founder calls, due diligence, pitch events, LP updates, and report writing, with direct exposure to the conviction-building process that drives a fund's portfolio decisions.
