Founder Mentors: The Best New Program for Boston Entrepreneurs
Posted by Ellie Mirman on Tue, Mar 15, 2011 @ 07:15 AM
It's finally time to tell my oh-so-loyal blog readership what I've been up to the past couple months. I'm excited to finally share that I'm helping out with the best new program for Boston entrepreneurs: Founder Mentors.
Founder Mentors is a non-for-profit program focused on connecting new entrepreneurs with experienced founders to help them tackle the challenges of starting and growing a new business. The program has some pretty incredible mentors, including David Cancel (Performable), David Hauser (Grasshopper Labs), Nabeel Hyatt (Conduit Labs / Zynga Boston), and John Prendergast (Blueleaf). We've had an incredible response from the Boston entrepreneur community, which goes to show how needed this program was!
So while I'm not yet a mentee (maybe one day when I'm a founder...), I still get to chat with all the participants and organize/attend some great events. The first of which is coming up tomorrow!

If you're in town and this is the sort of thing up your alley, you should join us! You can register here (it's free, but limited so please only register if you really will attend).
