This is for people who are looking to expand their investment knowledge and level up their portfolio. You do not need to be an industry professional. We recommend that you have interest in the markets, and are looking to learn. This is for investors across varying stages of their journey, with a focus on market enthusiasts who are looking for a passionate and thoughtful community!
No, there is no minimum amount of money that you need to have already or in the future to be invested. We do however recommend to have at least $10k to invest to get the full value of the program and truly understand how you make investment decisions.
Yes: ODI will be run entirely remotely.
Post-COVID, we’ll return to organizing offline programming like dinners, small gatherings, and retreats, but the core Fellowship will remain a remote-first experience.
ODI is a holistic deep-dive into the entire investment process alongside other experienced investors who will share this journey with you. You will be able to have thoughtful conversations with investors ranging from best practices, investment analysis, market trends and the ability to build long lasting relationships to create your own personal ‘investment committee’. We begin with investor psychology in mind, with the goal to help you truly understand your own risk preferences and financial goals in order to help you better your financial future. We cover different schools of investing with deep dives into nuanced asset classes. This program is a combination of community, curriculum, and curation.
No. This program will not provide any investment recommendations or financial advice.
The details of the distinctions are available in this disclaimer:
Nothing herein shall constitute or be construed as an offering of financial instruments or as investment advice or investment recommendations (i.e., recommendations as to whether or not to “buy”, “sell”, “hold”, or to enter or not to enter into any other transaction involving any specific investment) by nZero Labs, Inc. (“On Deck”) or a recommendation as to an investment or other strategy by On Deck. Data and other information available on this site should not be considered as information sufficient upon which to base an investment decision. All information provided by On Deck is impersonal and not tailored to the needs of any person, entity or group of persons. On Deck does not express an opinion on the future or expected value of any security or investment and does not explicitly or implicitly recommend or suggest an investment strategy of any kind.
Our goal is to make the Fellowship accessible to the absolute best talent, no matter their financial situation.
All Fellows have the option to pay in four monthly installments (with no interest or additional charges). We also have a limited number of scholarships available thanks to our Access Fund. Information about scholarship applications will be provided to accepted Fellows closer to the kickoff date.
Between attending strategy workshops and attending speaker sessions, you should expect to commit two to four hours a week.
Beyond workshops, ODI is designed to be a choose-your-own-adventure buffet. You get out what you put in: often, the biggest contributors are also the biggest beneficiaries!
Depending on your schedule and interests, you could choose to:
- Attend speaker sessions, tactical deep dives, and strategy workshops for full immersion
- Tune in as you’d like and attend sessions that are particularly interesting to you
- Use the On Deck directory to connect with fellows one-on-one
- Attend community events or cross-program events
Most fellows have full-time jobs, so our programming is designed with that in mind.
Yes: ODI will be run entirely remotely. This enables participation from all corners of the world. We’ve spent the past two ODF cohorts mastering the playbook for building remote communities and relationship building online, and will apply the same approach here.
Post-COVID, we’ll return to organizing offline programming like dinners, small gatherings, and retreats, but the core Fellowship will remain a remote-first experience.
