GLI launches Mentor Louisville program

Matches entrepreneurs with mentors

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Nov. 18, 2016) — Greater Louisville Inc. today launched its Mentor Louisville program. The program matches qualified entrepreneurs with a personally selected mentor, subject matter expert, or service provider offering experience launching, growing, scaling, and/or investing in a business.

Startup founders and those interested in becoming mentors can sign up on MentorLouisville.com. The program then personally connects mentors with mentees based on their specific needs and experience.

“This is a new piece of infrastructure for our entrepreneurial community that never existed before,” said Brittain Skinner, assistant director of EnterpriseCorp & the Kentucky Innovation Network. “We think that by curating these relationships between first-time entrepreneurs and successful business leaders who know the challenges ahead we can accelerate the growth of early stage companies and create stronger businesses here locally.”
