Understanding how to add value to a starting business is core to becoming a successful business angel. Mentors have the ability to create immense value for startups by sharing the knowledge and experiences they have gained and the networks they have built over the course of a career.
VC4A has developed the Mentor-Driven Capital (MDC) approach with the mission to sustainably strengthen local startup ecosystems by leading the path for aspiring mentors. The 3-month program provides the best tools, guidance and lessons learned to business professionals and industry leaders for successful mentorship engagements.
