At Innovate Celebrate 2017, you’ll be able to sign up for a wide range of mentorship tracks with everything from one-on-one attention to group advice from tech leaders, experts, investors and influencers in industries that coincide with your particular niche and stage of startup.
Mentor Sessions Presented by Revelry
Getting one-on-one attention is nearly impossible in the startup world. Founders, CEOs, investors and directors of employees are always moving a mile a minute and rarely have time to sit down and talk shop. But at Innovate Celebrate 2017, you’ll be able to pick the brain of some of the most influential entrepreneurial minds in the world today. These 30 minutes private sessions are designed for attendees who wish to take a deep dive into challenges facing their startup or business and gain valuable insight and advice to help build their business.
Mentor Circles Presented by Revelry
Sometimes, you need to bounce your ideas off of other founders to get the most out of a mentorship program. That’s where our mentor circles come in handy. You’ll have the chance to sit down with tech leaders, experts, influencers, and aspiring entrepreneurs like yourself to learn about how your startup should progress through the next stage in your business. These 30 minute group sessions are designed for attendees that want the opportunity to gain insight into specific challenges they are having within their business and receive valuable targeted advice for those issues.
