Mentorship
Guidance from sustainability experts
Mentorship provides additional guidance for the teams as they work through their solutions. We pair each team with a mentor who is either an expert in the topic the team is focusing on or familiar with entrepreneurship and/or has relevant sustainability expertise It also provides students with an opportunity to connect with sustainability professionals and expand their networks.
The program was brilliant and as a mentor it was great to see all the teams having the courage to work on complex challenges that are sometimes overlooked. The teams have really cool, practical ideas that can actually be implemented and have the potential to become successful companies if they pursued them.
