With a mentor, your first instinct doesn’t have to be your only option. Ideally, mentors will provide advice and warnings learned from years of personal experience. These seasoned entrepreneurs have likely been through everything from raising capital and building company culture to cofounder disputes and disappointing funding rounds, giving them the insight they need to guide you through the elaborate journey of entrepreneurship. Plus, in a world that demands you know someone to get in the door, mentorship provides the fast track to an advantageous entrepreneurial network.

A History of Mentorship

At Tech.Co, we’ve been committed to the value of mentorship for years. Between our one-on-one sessions at Innovate! and Celebrate to our mission of supporting startups around the world, Tech.Co has made it as easy as possible to grow as a budding startup without having to fail first. The Tech.Co tradition of mentorship is about so much more than giving advice. We make sure that every entrepreneur has what they need to succeed, from contacts to confidence. And because we know that mentors come in all shapes and sizes, we always try to make sure entrepreneurs are paired with someone that can really help.
