You have the questions we have the answers
01
How do I find the right business mentor for my startup?
Don’t worry: The German Accelerator program team assists you in finding the right startup mentors to guide your business through its international expansion journey.
We’ll help you find the perfect mentors for your startup. From there, mentors will guide you on your journey to scale and grow your business as you understand, discover, and access new markets – all based on your individual needs.
02
What's it like to work with a startup mentor through German Accelerator?
Every good business mentorship requires a strong personal fit, so we work hard to personalize startup-mentor matches.
We provide access to a mentor network consisting of experienced entrepreneurs, experts, and leaders in their respective fields and location. Your startup mentor evaluates what your company needs in order to be successful in a new market, supports you in developing a strategy, and works closely together with you throughout your international expansion.
Based on your startup’s needs, we match you with a lead mentor who has relevant experience and a deep network in your industry. In addition, we provide access to various subject-matter experts and coaches who can work with you in focused workshops and dedicated one-on-one sessions.
03
What should I expect from my lead mentor?
Your lead mentor is a critical part of success in any German Accelerator program. A dedicated strategic lead serves as a point of contact for the program and often brings a background to your startup that your founding team may lack or need support with.
The German Accelerator team selects a first-class mentoring team which fits perfectly with your startup’s strategic needs.
During the German Accelerator program, you have a dedicated amount of startup mentoring hours – both with your lead startup mentor and specialized industry experts who offer more targeted support. Expect an open, interactive, and productive exchange of ideas.
04
How do I make the most out of the startup coaching and mentoring process?
Startup mentors are true experts in their field. They guide and advise your startup on how to make your international growth and expansion most successful. They will challenge and validate your business model, your product-market fit, and your customer approach. Most importantly, they help you look at things from different angles.
To get the most out of your sessions with startup mentors and business coaches, here are some tips compiled from program alumni and mentors:
- Listen carefully to your mentor’s outside perspective. This is a great opportunity to escape your own tunnel vision.
- Focus your startup mentoring sessions on a specific problem or question you can solve together.
- Clearly state what you need – there’s a tremendous network available, but you have to ask. Don’t be shy!
- Prepare well for meetings with your strategic lead mentor with written updates and questions in advance.
- Ask them to challenge you in order to make the most of your time in the program.
05
Will the mentors introduce me to potential clients and investors in their network?
Based on your individual needs, your startup mentors might also introduce you to their contacts once your company is ready to begin business conversations in a foreign market.
If you need additional help with your fundraising strategy or customer approach, your startup mentor can provide guidance and help get you ready.
05
Will I get help building a local team? Do the startup mentors introduce us to talent from their personal networks?
Startup mentors are happy to make introductions as they see fit, but you will have to carry out the actual implementation of hiring and building your team.
We’re always happy to spread the word about vacancies within the mentor network to help startups find suitable candidates, but beyond that, we’re not involved in any recruitment process.
