​why mentoring works

Entrepreneurship should not be thought of as a solitary activity:

“Mentored startups grow 3.5x faster and raise 7x more money… The experience and connections of the mentor provide entrepreneurs with a roadmap with a higher probability of success.”
Forbes magazine

“70 percent of small business owners that receive mentoring survive for five years or more, double the rate of those who do not receive mentoring.”
 Small Firms Enterprise Development Initiative

Tech Startup Academy™ MENTORING SERVICES

​
​"Is this the best approach?", "Am I on the right track with my thinking?", "Have I missed anything?", "How should I proceed from here?"
​
We've run hundreds of mentoring sessions, and spend our days talking to entrepreneurs and tech founders like you, who are starting, and building early-stage businesses.

One conversation can solve weeks of indecision or confusion and give you the freedom to move ahead!

Entrepreneurs hire us because they want to move forward faster, with a clear game plan and less doubt.
Let's work together to formulate a plan, so you have clarity about what your next steps should be.
​
Many entrepreneurs also value individual attention and guidance to help them find solutions, and to have someone to hold them accountable for completing important tasks.

We are also hired by incubators, pre-accelerators, accelerators, and a range of other organisations to support and mentor their cohorts.

Our mentoring comes with a range of benefits:

  • We're professional mentors; it's what we do full-time and you'll receive performance coaching with a qualified coach
​
  • We have a track record of working with founders who are starting new ventures; we regularly support founders at this stage

  • We're specialists - you'll work with a mentor with extensive experience in the tech industry; we have hands-on practical knowledge of transforming a basic concept into a finished, commercial product

  • Your mentor will also be an experienced entrepreneur; who has "been there and done it", and understands both the joys and challenges of starting and running a business
​
  • We care about your business and your growth as an entrepreneur as much as you do!

Clients who use our mentoring services benefit from increased focus and the ability to make more rapid breakthroughs with building their businesses than they would be able to achieve alone as a new entrepreneur, or founder who has started businesses before, but is new to the tech world.​
