The Green & Granite Venture Club

A private venture investing group for Dartmouth alumni and select friends. A private group of D alums who see and discuss compelling private company deals — and invest alongside Alumni Ventures.

Not a classroom. Not a networking club.

This is a serious investing group. Members are expected to invest real capital, engage with real deals, and build durable relationships with peers who take venture seriously.

The Green & Granite Venture Club offers high-signal access to blue-chip venture deals built around the Alumni Ventures deal engine.

The club is led by AV Co-Founder & D’07, Luke Antal.
