Program Description
The Virtual Mentoring to Overcome COVID-19 program was designed to support early-stage startups struggling to validate their business models and sustain operations during the pandemic. Targeting startups in the post-ideation phase, the program helped entrepreneurs develop a survival mindset, innovate within resource constraints, and navigate the critical validation journey.
These 12 participating startups faced significant challenges due to the pandemic, including difficulties in securing funding, adapting to market shifts, and refining their business strategies. To address these issues, the program provided tailored support through 35 virtual mentoring sessions over eight weeks, featuring experts from leading companies such as Amazon, Airbnb, and Google.
Through expert guidance, participants gained hands-on support in business development, financial planning, product development, and marketing. This mentorship enabled them to quickly adapt, refine their solutions, and progress toward their next milestones, fostering long-term resilience and sustainable growth.
