Strengthening our Business Mentoring Service

mentors-for-young-entrepreneurs-rectangle-706Kent Foundation for Young Entrepreneurs has amplified its flagship Business Mentoring service.
After recent training 17 Kent business owners and professionals have joined the ever growing team of Business Mentors who volunteer their time to support young entrepreneurs.
Business and entrepreneurship are hot topics at the moment and becoming an entrepreneur is an increasingly popular career choice amongst young people – you could almost say it is becoming fashionable. It is critical that there is a response to this rise in young entrepreneurs with the delivery of appropriate business support.
With over 60 trained Business Mentors and such a broad spectrum of knowledge between them, Kent Foundation is well placed to deliver truly tailored business support. Since 2010 the service has gone from strength to strength and has accelerated in popularity between young people and the voluntary support offered by the business community of Kent. Young entrepreneurs are matched to a business mentor that meets their specific business needs. They meet for one hour per month and receive expert business guidance which, in turn, increases the chance of business success.
Paul Barron – Director of Kent Foundation was overwhelmed with the expressions of interest for the latest Business Mentor training course and had this to say about it:

That is why I am ecstatic at the sheer number of people we had in attendance at our latest Business Mentor training course. The time, expertise and skills they offer to young entrepreneurs is without a doubt a valuable resource to Kent Foundation.”
