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.

Between attending strategy workshops and attending speaker sessions, you should expect to commit five to ten 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.
