Mentorship motivation
- I am looking for new investments

- I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up

I mentor because I am deeply committed to giving back to the startup ecosystem and supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs. I believe that sharing my knowledge and experience can help emerging businesses overcome challenges and achieve success. Additionally, mentoring provides me with opportunities to discover new investments, learn about innovative industries and business models, and scout for roles as an advisor or board member. Engaging with new ventures also allows me to expand my network and create valuable connections for both myself and the organizations I represent.
