CALL FOR MENTORS!!

Do you feel confident in your professional expertise? Are you interested in sharing your knowledge to help guide someone who is new to the industry or new to entrepreneurship?

We are seeking experienced professionals over multiple industries to serve as mentors for our Pitch for $K competition. Mentors play a vital role in helping finalists expand their entrepreneurial networks and strengthen their business pitches. Each finalist is paired with a mentor to receive personalized guidance as they prepare for the competition.

As a mentor, it is asked that you commit to a minimum of 3 hours to work with your assigned finalist. Sessions with your finalist can take place via phone, video call or in-person - whichever is most convenient.

*DISCLAIMER: Mentors are selected based on needs for each participant per competition, this can and will vary, not all mentor applications will be selected*
