Savvy Fellowship offers a call for mentors in its Fellowship Programme for Aspiring and Early-Stage Entrepreneurs in 2023.
Currently, the Savvy mentorship team includes 62 changemakers from 20 countries, with a combined experience of over 250 years, and they are looking for more amazing people to join the team. They volunteer as mentors at Savvy because they believe that entrepreneurs are the catalyst for growth and the creators of wealth, so they’re building a programme that is shaping passionate young professionals into the finest impact-driven entrepreneurs, and equipping them with all they need to be successful at what they do.
Savvy Fellowship kicks off with a rigorous 12-week e-learning experience. As a Savvy Fellow, you will get to learn everything from ideation to venture scaling, including how to start, build, and scale an impact venture. Using visual presentations, they’ll help you answer all the relevant questions you need to kickstart that amazing impact venture, gain early traction, achieve product-market fit, and scale into newer markets. Some of the things you’ll learn during the program are ‘understanding your customer’, ‘building a product or service that effectively solves their key challenges’, and ‘effectively positioning your solution in the market.’ Savvy is for every impact entrepreneur, no matter what stage your venture is.
So far, they have received over 70,000 applications from around the world, and have selected over 6,000 Fellows from 151 countries
