Why become a mentor?
Foster growth
Mentors have a tangible impact on all types of entrepreneurs. Experienced guidance can be incredibly valuable for founders, providing direction that leads to growth and improvement. The position also offers a meaningful opportunity to give back to the Web3 community.
Discover new innovations and perspectives
Mentees bring fresh views and ideas to Web3; new perspectives and novel ways to approach complex problems enable you to keep your fingers on the pulse of the latest trends and ideas.
Connect and extend your network
Meet a broad, global community of innovators who are designing the future. Share insights, exchange knowledge, and grow your network.
Strategic partnerships
Freely sharing your expertise with teams you believe in gives you access to new businesses, founders, and early-stage projects. These organically born relationships can evolve to become strategic partnerships in the form of customers, advisory, investment opportunities, and more.
What does being a mentor look like?
Mentors engage with teams in a number of ways, support can be high or low touch depending on your availability. We are looking for individuals from all backgrounds, locations, and industry verticals.
Mentors typically work with 1–3 teams and time commitment can range from 1–15 hours in total over a 3-month program.
There are a couple of areas where mentors get involved, these include speed mentoring at the start of the program, investment pitches, 1–2–1 mentorship, and conclude with a Demo Day.
All participation is valuable. The next program will run from April 24th to mid-July 2023.
