Cornell Growth Capital

Cornell University's Student-Run Investment Organization

We train students to think like investors: developing rigorous theses, defending ideas under pressure, and making disciplined decisions through a structured investment process.

About Us

Cornell Growth Capital is a student-run investment organization at Cornell University. Founded in 2026, the club brings together students from every school and major who want to understand how markets work. Our purpose is two-fold: to develop disciplined, research-driven investors, and to build a community of students who share a passion for investing.

What We Do

Stock Pitches

Members research companies and pitch them to the club. Every idea has to survive tough questions from the room before it earns a vote.
