Epicenter’s Mentorship Network is a program that connects local entrepreneurs tech or high-growth startups with mentors, subject matter experts, and other entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurship doesn’t have to be a solo journey.
Epicenter’s Mentorship Network is a program that connects local entrepreneurs tech or high-growth startups with mentors, subject matter experts, and other entrepreneurs.
This network seeks to provide entrepreneurs with valuable connections, both to their peers and to business and industry leaders.
Epicenter has licensed the software from a local startup, UpSquad, that network members will be able to use to book meetings and message other network members.
Who is the Mentorship Network for?
Entrepreneurs:
The Epicenter Mentorship Network is focused on tech based and high-growth potential businesses. This can include technology startups, consumer packaged goods or other branded products, service companies that have a history of high growth, and any company with the potential for significant revenue growth over the next 5 years.
Subject Matter Experts:
The Epicenter Mentorship Network is open to any subject matter experts who are willing to share their expertise with local entrepreneurs. This could include industry professionals, academics, retired entrepreneurs, experienced business operators, or anyone who is interested in helping entrepreneurs but less interested in the long-term, more intimate mentor/mentee relationship.
Mentors:
The Epicenter Mentorship Network is open to any who are interested in mentoring entrepreneurs. This can range from targeted business development advice to simply being a listening ear and a virtual (or in-person) shoulder to cry on. For those who are interested in being a mentor but are unsure where to start, we will offer a free “How to be an effective mentor” course quarterly, or more often as needed.
Service Providers:
The Epicenter Mentorship Network is open to service providers who are interested in providing services to entrepreneurs or businesses. Service providers could include tax preparers, accountants, regulatory consultants, contract engineering firms, and more. Epicenter will not allow service providers to conduct paid business on the platform, but we believe that there is value in providing a venue for entrepreneurs to find and meet service providers.
