British Columbia Innovation Council

The BCIC Mentor Program provides an environment that enables mentors to have fun and enjoy the satisfaction of bestowing their experience to appreciative entrepreneurs and make a real difference to ventures at critical points in their development. The Program matches individuals with strong professional experience in the technology industry who wish to give back to the BC technology community and seek professional stimulation without the obligation of "a job" with founders and CEOs of early stage technology companies in BC who need advice, guidance and support to grow their companies.

Mentor characteristics:

• Solid expertise relevant to early stage companies
• Seen as a role model by peers
• Good listener & ability to advise
• No personal agenda
• Time to participate

We encourage interested individuals to apply for consideration as a volunteer mentor. Apply to be a Mentor.
