Momentum mentors bring years of business experience, many of them successful small business owners themselves. Mentors volunteer through the Business Centre Guelph-Wellington to help other entrepreneurs like you, by sharing their real-world experience and bona fide knowledge in running successful small businesses. With the help of the Pollinate mentor matching, you as the business owner will be provided with the best matched mentor to help you succeed.

This program works with small business owners by creating a tangible plan that will help to overcome some of the current barriers your business maybe facing in these times of recovery. Then, we match you and your plan with both expert Advisors and Industry specialists to help execute on the plan; ideally, helping to better position you and your business for future growth and sustainability.

We also understand that there are not for profit organizations struggling to survive and so we are happy to include registered Not for Profit and Charitable organizations looking for the same guidance, support, and resources as well.

Finally, please note that there is absolutely NO COST TO YOU, just the opportunity to surround yourself with people who have been successful in their businesses and professional careers and want the same for you . Sound good? Then join us by registering today as we are now accepting applications for the next cohort.
