Our mentors
Mentors have an incredible impact on entrepreneurs. Our mentors work with start-ups on a voluntary basis sharing their knowledge, guidance and network with our teams in order to provide the most appropriate and relevant support.
It’s your chance to give back – to support the start-up ecosystem and openly share your expertise with teams you believe in.
Join us as a mentor at XPRENEURS and become part of the UnternehmerTUM ecosystem!
What mentorship means for our mentors
Mentor, Industry Expert, Consultant
Mentoring start-ups is fun and challenging at the same time and XPRENEURS is absolutely the right place to do it. As a mentor you’re guiding start-ups through intensive and somethings rough times. Each mentorship grows with that. You face a lot of challenges and go through them together, just like in a friendship.
Nicolas Knapp – Innovation Manager, Bosch
Mentor, Founder, Consultant
For me, what makes XPRENEURS so special is the diverse ecosystem. Mentoring is a fantastic tool for personal growth for both sides: The teams can unlock their full potential with the support of a mentor and as a mentor you learn a lot through the exchange of different perspectives.
Cornelia Kunze – Founder & Chief Advisor, i-sekai
Mentor, Serial Entrepreneur, Business Angel
At XPRENEURS you are right at the pulse of new technologies. I had a lot of joy supporting the start-ups weekly. Even after the batch teams approached me and discussed strategic questions very closely with me. Taking time for the teams is really important for me to build a trusting and open relationship.
