MATTER

Operations Intern

September - December 2019 • Alvin, IL

What I liked

I enjoyed the people I worked with. Meeting passionate health tech innovators.

What I wish was different

I wish I had been able to engage more with the health side, and did not get very much work (but this lack of much work is because I was not there everyday- the other intern was given more).

Advice

Be sure that if you intern here, you are on the ventures team if you are most interested in health tech and financing. I was in operations, which was really just about the office itself and running things smoothly.

Strategy Programs Intern

June - August 2018 • Chicago, IL

What I liked

The breadth of variety in the field of healthcare is astounding, and MATTER was absoutely the right place to get glimpses into it all. From the members to the partners to the MATTER team, everyone was also so open to teaching me their expertises and sharing experiences. I loved getting to know the healthcare world from a business, comericial side rather from the more traditional research or textbook knowledge that we do in school. Also, because it was a hub of startups, I was able to truly see the grit and passion it takes to run a thriving small business.
