Mentorship motivation

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

I would like to support founders with the knowledge and skills I have gained over the years to help shorten their learning curve. I want to give back to the startup community by helping innovative founders build strong teams and profitable businesses. The global COVID-19 pandemic has changed almost every business process, it has exposed the need to improve existing processes and pressured organizations to incorporate digital solutions as remote working has become a norm for the foreseeable future. My interest is tackling the issues preventing inclusive economic transformation to strengthen the importance of producing and buying local to harness local economic participation and innovation.
