Mentor Morning

Mentor Morning is a casual, high-impact networking experience designed to connect entrepreneurs, students, and community members with experienced mentors in an approachable and flexible format. During the event, multiple mentors will be available at individual tables while attendees rotate through the space to ask questions, seek advice, explore ideas, and build connections. Rather than scheduling formal one-on-one meetings, participants can engage in shorter, organic conversations with several mentors in a single visit. Hosted at The Innovate Carolina Junction in collaboration with Launch Chapel Hill, this month's Mentor Morning will feature mentors engaging with members of the Launch Chapel Hill student cohort as well as international student ventures participating in an innovation hub crawl. Community entrepreneurs, coworking members, and other attendees are also encouraged to participate.
