About This Project
The Startup x VC Film & Series List is part of Dream VC’s broader initiative to provide accessible, engaging resources that offer both educational value and real-world insights into the startup and venture capital ecosystems. With a unique selection of films, series, and documentaries, this list will immerse you in the triumphs and challenges of entrepreneurship, while providing a visual understanding of VC dynamics, investment strategies, and startup journeys.
​
How We Did It
This collection was curated through a blend of primary and secondary research, with inputs from the venture capital industry and a range of PE and VC funds, via surveys and a thorough review of the top films, series, and documentaries that depict the startup and venture capital world by Dream VC's team. Dream VC LIVC Venture Fellow Kelechi Achinonu played a key role in leading the secondary research, ensuring a well-rounded selection of content. Each recommendation has been thoroughly quality-checked for accuracy and relevance.
