Introducing the START Alumni Network

Alumni can now mentor active START teams one-on-one. Applications for the winter cohort are open until November.

Starting this winter, START alumni can mentor active START members one-on-one. The programme pairs each mentor with one mentee for three months, with at least one conversation per month.

Who can join

Any verified START alum can apply as a mentor, whether you founded a company, work in a corporate, invest, research or are still figuring things out. Active START members from every chapter can apply as mentees.

“Most of us had someone who answered our questions when we were starting out. This is our way of passing that on.”

How it works

Mentors and mentees fill in a short profile with their topics and goals. The alumni team suggests matches, and both sides confirm before the first meeting. A short guide with conversation ideas helps the first session get going.

“Most of us had someone who answered our questions when we were starting out,” says one of the programme's initiators. “This is our way of passing that on.”

Apply

Applications for the winter cohort are open until the end of November. Mentor sign-up is available to verified alumni in the alumni newsletter and the WhatsApp Community.
