Peter Harris Email & Phone Number

Peter Harris is a Partner at University Growth Fund. They is proficient in Spanish. Colleagues describe them as "Peter has not only been an amazing boss but has gone above and beyond to be both a mentor and role model during the early stages of my professional career. When I first came to UGF, I had little understanding of what Venture Capital was and had a lack of direction with my professional goals. This changed when I met Peter. Peter is an individual that truly cares about students and is willing to take the time to help anyone that asks even when his time is limited. Peter’s guidance has helped me better understand what it means to be a venture capitalist and the critical lens necessary when making investment decisions. From these experiences with him, I now understand what it means to lead by example and can confidently say that I know what it takes to be a leader towards others. Coming from the perspective of a venture capitalist, a mentee, and a friend, I thank you Peter for all the work you put in for us students and hope that you can continue to make a difference in so many different lives." and "Peter has been a valuable mentor and teacher while I was at UGF. He is a champion at connecting with others, and his greatest strength is his perception of business and people. His discernment is unmatched, and many people I know have commented on his assessments' accuracy. Peter is a leader who lets others speak first and ensures that even the quietest person can participate. He is passionate about UGF, helping the students, and the portfolio companies. He takes the time to put his mind to problems and innovates excellent solutions. All the while, he carries a cheerful attitude and loves to laugh. I owe a lot to the training I received from him and have grown so much under his tutelage. I highly recommend Peter in your corner; he never disappoints and will be a tremendous value add in every capacity."
