- Summary:
- Mentoring start-up companies entails specific and challenges that are distinct from those needed for traditional mentoring as start-up mentors are often also seen as advisors and potential angel investors. This analytical case aims to raise student awareness of these specificities and to discuss the associated key challenges faced by mentors. It places students in the role of Evan, an experienced angel investor with strong industry knowledge, who was commissioned to mentor Helmi, a "metaverse" start-up founder. Students will be asked to explore the mentor's roles in the mentoring contract, examine the mentor's dilemma in balancing contract integrity and practical mentee needs, and develop a strategic mentoring approach.
