Duo Mentoring Programme
Meet with senior business executives to benefit from their expertise!
The Duo Mentoring Programme, co-initiated with the French Trade Advisors, is an opportunity offered to Startups, Entrepreneurs and SME who want to expand their business in the region to meet, exchange insights and learn from a mentor (business manager or experienced senior executive).
Similarly, mentors are often looking to enrich their own professional experience by offering their advice and learning from tomorrow's talent.
Retained applicants benefit from their mentor’s professional experience, contacts and/or advice through one-to-one meetings (online or face-to-face).
Mentors' commitment is strictly personal : the success of the programme is based on mutual trust, respect, confidentiality and interest in making progress.
It has already proven to be a valuable platform for both Mentors and Mentees.
How does it work?
As Mentors and Mentees are not from the same company, an open and confidential dialogue is possible.
DUO Mentoring Programme is a long-term mentoring commitment.
It consists of 1 meeting per month for a period of 6 to 12-months.
This is to enable a solid foundation for professional advancement.
Open to Startups, Entrepreneurs or SME representatives with a minimum of 1 year existing business.
