Founder Institute Mentores

Porto Alegre - Brasil 2025

Mentores

O Founder Institute recruta de modo criterioso aproximadamente 25 Mentores por Semestre, que são normalmente o CEO ou o fundador de uma iniciativa de sucesso. Os Mentores são seleccionados com base na sua capacidade de transmitir as lições aprendidas sobre um tema no currículo e ajudar os Fundadores participantes a partilhar as suas experiências relevantes. Os mentores estão acessíveis para os Fundadores no programa, durante as sessões e através do e-mail. A valorização de participações partilhada em cada Semestre encoraja as relações de apoio e colaboração com os Mentores.

O Instituto recruta alguns dos Mentores depois de um Semestre ter sugerido corresponder as necessidades dos Fundadores com as competências dos Mentores.
