The backbone of Venture Café – come meet the community and make connections with all different kinds of innovators. How will you make your serendipitous moment come true?
Mentorship only works when both sides know how to show up for it. Chuck Goldstone has spent a decade on both ends of that relationship, mentoring startup founders across the globe, guiding accelerator cohorts, advising university students, and holding weekly office hours that have shaped how hundreds of entrepreneurs think about growth. In this session, he shares what separates a mentor relationship that actually moves the needle from one that fizzles out, and what founders can do to get more out of the mentors already in their corner.
Whether you are looking for a mentor, already working with one, or mentoring others yourself, this conversation offers something to take back to your next conversation.
