Mentoring

V2 Africa Labs doesn't stop at workshops. Our commitment goes further by assigning a dedicated mentor to each entrepreneur after each program. This mentor acts as a guide, ensuring the entrepreneur grasps the learned concepts and can apply them effectively.

Mentors also play a crucial role in helping entrepreneurs implement the Lean Start method, known for its iterative approach to business growth. Also, the support goes even deeper. These mentors offer encouragement and practical advice as the entrepreneurs strive to achieve their social impact goals alongside their business objectives. In essence, V2 Africa Labs fosters a supportive environment where both financial success and positive community impact can flourish.

V2 Africa Labs goes beyond conventional mentoring! We create a unique mentoring program called Alongsider that pairs experienced business owners from around the world with Nigerian entrepreneurs. The Alongsider act as a special mentor, providing guidance and encouragement as the entrepreneur launch and grow the business.

The Alongsider form of support extends beyond just advice. An Alongsider can also connect an entrepreneur with valuable resources, such as networking opportunities, new markets, reliable suppliers, and potential investors. These connections could also be mutually beneficial. While the Alongsider supports the entrepreneur's journey, they may also discover new business possibilities within Nigeria themselves.
