UVM Mentoring Network: Mentors Sharing Their Experience and Expertise

Are you an entrepreneur, bringing your idea to the marketplace? Are you innovating novel solutions to problems that need to be solved? Are you an established entrepreneur that wants to take your idea or service to the next level? Do you have urgent questions that are slowing down your progress?

We can help. We have created a tool called the UVM Mentoring Network to help beginning entrepreneurs connect seamlessly with proven mentors who will share their experience and wisdom. We are seeing early success with the Q & A between the mentors and mentees and this leads us to believe we have created a useful tool for supporting our entrepreneurship community.
