The HVB Women's Entrepreneurship Mentoring Program is entering its fifth round in 2017. As part of the HVB Women's Advisory Council initiative, experienced female entrepreneurs and members of the HVB Women's Advisory Council will accompany female founders on their journey to self-employment for six months. Female founders can apply until July 5th.
The HVB Women Entrepreneurship Mentoring program delivers what its name promises: In this support program, selected mentees receive practical advice from a women's advisor for six months—for example, Stephanie Czerny, Prof. Susanne Porsche, or Nina Hugendubel. The founders benefit directly from the mentors' experience and network.
Another important component of the mentoring program is the Exchange with other founders from a wide range of industries. Successful Munich founders such as Patricia Eschenlohr from Landpack, Manuela Rasthofer from TerraLoupe or Catharina van Delden from innosabi are part of the network as former mentees.
