Running your Startup Mentor Pool Running your Startup Mentor Pool
How your mentor pool works, and the settings that shape it.
What the mentor pool is
Founders book mentors from the pool
A pool program has no matching step: founders book mentors’ free hours directly.
Events for the pool
Office hours and workshops as events
Publish office hours, workshops, trainings or webinars, and founders register on the event page.
Online, in person or hybrid
For everyone, only mentors, only founders, or selected people.
Places, approval and a waitlist
Set places and a deadline, and the waitlist fills freed places.
A calendar invite by email
Confirmed people get the invite, and a time change updates it.
