TEAM AND MENTORS

According to Facebook, there are exactly 3.57 people between you and the most successful people in the world. We will provide you with the best knowledge and experience and put you in touch with the right people.

The Tehnopol and Tehnopol Startup Incubator mentor network includes nearly 200 mentors who are experts in their fields and actively contribute to the growth and success of startups and technology companies.

Starting an entrepreneurial journey, scaling a company, raising capital, and expanding into new export markets often require knowledge, skills, and networks that early-stage companies may not yet have. Tehnopol mentors are hands-on practitioners with extensive, long-term experience in advising and supporting companies.

If this sounds interesting to you, please get in touch with our Community Manager Kätlin-Carolin Noormägi at katlin@tehnopol.ee.
