Mentoring

Good mentors make or break startups. Startups that have helpful mentors, track metrics effectively, and learn from startup thought leaders raise seven times more money and have 3.5 times better user growth (you can learn more at Startup Genome project)

The Entrepreneur First mentors are many of the brightest entrepreneurial minds in the UK. You can get a sense of their calibre from the people on our Entrepreneur Advisory Panel. Our mentors are founders of leading UK start-ups, who have been through what you’re about to go through – and succeeded. We passionately believe in setting you up with the right mentor - perhaps someone with the same interests or background as you, but certainly who you click with. You’ll get to meet our mentors at ‘Mentor Encounter Days’ so that you can pair up with mentors who are on the same wavelength as you. 

Then, you’ll meet with your mentors regularly to pick their brains. Whenever you’re faced with a problem, they’re just a phone call or an email away. You can be sure they’ll have faced the same challenges a few years ago. Consider them your personal advisor.
