Project Details

What we need
  • Join us for a 30 minute call to learn more about the teams, our organisation, and what we need
  • Schedule monthly 30 minute to 1 hour meetings with your assigned student group
  • Guide mentees to launch their start-up idea in the real world using your own business expertise

Background

The Youth Innovators Competition is an annual startup competition hosted by Support! International Foundation, GlobalMinds, and Luminate Network. The competition invites global high school students to submit their business idea and pitch in front of a live audience, promoting the entrepreneurial spirit and boosting students' creativity. As one of the prizes of the competition, the top 3 teams are paired with a mentor from Time Auction who will facilitate their success on their entrepreneurial journey by guiding them on how to create their startup from scratch and providing them with relevant resources.

What we have

We have prepared a mentorship framework that would be provided for each mentor after an initial onboarding call. We'll also be checking in regularly with the assigned student group, making sure they are on task. This is also a collaboration between 3 different organizations, each with their own extensive networks which will be at your disposal.

Why this is important

This mentorship program is a chance to connect business leaders of today with the next generation. You would help us to provide in depth exposure and business knowledge to the student teams who will aim to launch their start-up idea in the real world.
