Last week, a group of our students had the exciting opportunity to visit Texas Capital Headquarters in Dallas. During the visit, they learned about the bank's vision for the future and explored early career opportunities. It was a great chance for students to engage with industry professionals and get valuable insights into the innovative work happening at Texas Capital. Thank you to Brad Mayer, MBA, CFP®, CEPA, one of our BAN members, for the hospitality. We are extremely grateful to you and the rest of the Texas Capital team for taking the time to pour into our students. #BankingCareers #FinanceCareers #EarlyCareers #InvestmentBanking #TexasCapital #TexasCapitalBank

Our students were tasked with conducting their own research and analysis to launch a venture fund. Such a wonderful opportunity to showcase their creativity and knowledge developed during the BAN Practicum course. Way to go, Seniors!👏🏼 And thank you to our network members that provided feedback and invaluable insights to our students. #venture #venturecapital #finance #angelnetwork #baylorangelnetwork
