Meet Our Mentors
What follows is a list of the people in the BetaBlox mentorship family. These kind and awesome souls have all found various ways to add value to our program and/or the individual entrepreneurs within it. We use this list almost like a Rolodex of sorts. When we need speakers, we come here. When one of our startups needs some sort of niched expertise, we come here.
Do not confuse this page with that of “Our Team” page. The team page represents the people that each own part of the various batches of BetaBlox, and THEY do the regular, contractual, and one-on-one coaching. From a programmatic standpoint, they are more important than the people on this list. The “mentors” help us go wide, and our “team” helps us go deep.
Let it be noted that we never update this page. It’s too much of a pain in our butt. The list of whom is on it is 3X larger than what is shown here. Also let it be noted that if for whatever reason you don’t get along with anyone on this page (or view them as potential competition), you will never see them, hear from them, nor will they hear of you. Entrepreneurs move fast and break things. We’re confident that includes some of the people on this page. With several exceptions, this is a list of volunteers that augment our program that you will have access to – if you so choose.
