Mentorship motivation

  • I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
  • I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat

Mentoring is a great opportunity to share my practical experiences and skills with my audience. I believe sharing my experiences and skills will help some people to advance their careers and businesses.
