Get in touch with us! And who knows, you might join the pool of VU alumni mentors for startups who help our startups to the next pivot or growth phase!<\/p>\n

We already have over 60 VU alumni willing to help the young entrepreneurs with their first steps. Each year we will organise a meeting with these mentors so they can get to know each other and learn from each other. In addition, we offer all mentors a training: Startup mentor<\/strong>. This training is provided by our Talent & Knowledge partner GrowthFactory<\/a> and lasts 2 x 2 hours. The training covers the basics of the GrowthFactory method for successful growth: the Entrepreneur’s Journey. This method deals with the fears, resistances and rewards that every entrepreneur faces from start-up onwards. The Startup Toolkit that you will have in your hands after the training, will help the starting entrepreneur to grow into the next phase in a focused and effective way.<\/p>\n

Mail us at enterprising@vu.nl<\/a> if you are interested in being a mentor. It is unpaid and takes at least 1 hour per week. But you get so much in return ?<\/p>\n
