Why The Catalyst Group partnered with IB Vine
The Catalyst Group is an investment banking and private equity club at UNC Chapel Hill. Founded in 2023 with an impressive 100% placement rate in its first two years, the organization is dedicated to mentoring underclassmen through the recruiting process.
With many of the alumni having used IB Vine for their own recruiting, the club wanted to set their members up for success with a modern, comprehensive prep platform that would complement their strong mentorship culture and existing resources.
Through the partnership, members of The Catalyst Group have access to IB Vine's Pro Tier throughout the Summer 2027 investment banking recruiting season, giving them the tools they need to secure offers at top firms.
Interested in a partnership for your club?
We offer flexible bulk packages with significantly discounted rates for organizations:
- Typically 6- or 12-month terms (can be customized)
- Pro or Diamond tiers
- Minimum of 10 seats (can be scaled as high as needed)
Packages can be tailored to your club's recruiting calendar and priorities. Retail 6- and 12-month plans already discount monthly pricing, and bulk packages stack additional discounts that scale with seat volume.
In return for significantly discounted bulk rates, we typically ask for light marketing of IB Vine on your organization's channels (such as a website logo or social media post).
