The CED Venture Mentor Service supports innovation and entrepreneurial activity by matching entrepreneurs with skilled volunteer mentors. The program uses a team mentoring approach to assist entrepreneur(s) through sessions that provide practical, day-to-day professional advice, coaching and action plans.
VMS is best suited for full-time entrepreneurs with operational questions, who are ready for an initial advisory team. If you are in early planning or startup stages, we recommend participating in the CED FastTrac Program.
