Grow your startup business, expand your network, and
access a talented group of tech executives,
investors, mentors, & industry leaders
Mentors are an essential part of our culture. By freely sharing their wisdom & guidance, they impact the entire network and create real, lasting relationships.
Startups can meet and interact with our mentors in a variety of ways. Our small cohort size (ranging from 5-8) ensures that founders will have an opportunity to meet 1:1 with mentors during meetups, talks, or thru personal introductions.
