Throughout the cohort, lead mentors act as accountability coaches and help guide founders to maximize this experience.
Prior to the cohort, we will host an event during which each founder will pitch their business, each mentor will shared their experiences, and we will facilitate additional opportunities for founders and mentors to get to know one another. Afterward, both founders and mentors will rank their preferences, and we will match up founders and mentors accordingly.
We have grown a deep bench of successful UMSL alumni and community leaders who will meet with founders, share their experiences, and determine if there are opportunities to connect founders with larger networks or advise founders on specific areas of expertise.
UMSL is the only public university in the region to carry dual AACSB accreditations for its business and accounting programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
