Coming from a healthcare background, transitioning into Venture Capital and Private Equity felt intimidating and unclear. The Sutton Capital Fellowship, led by Joel Palathinkal, changed that for me in a very real way.
What stood out immediately was learning from people who are actually in the arena, investors and operators actively evaluating deals, working with founders, and deploying capital. That real-world perspective made everything practical, relatable, and immediately useful.
Joel has been more than an instructor; he’s been a genuine mentor and friend. He took the time to truly understand my background, my goals, and my concerns, and helped me shape a clear, credible path into VC/PE. The curriculum is hands-on, the conversations are honest, and the community is one I know I can rely on for the long term.
If you’re serious about breaking into VC or PE, especially from a non-traditional background, and want mentorship that actually feels personal, Sutton Capital is a rare find. I recommend it wholeheartedly.
