In this segment of the video, three speakers describe the core advantages of participating in a mentorship-driven startup program. Speaker A highlights how the program quickly provides founders with visibility into the local angel investment ecosystem, giving them a broader understanding of potential funding sources. Speaker B emphasizes the value of having access to multiple mentors who not only offer strategic advice and critical feedback but also serve as future contacts and resources. Speaker C reflects on the transformative effect of the peer founder cohort, noting that the relationships formed with fellow founders have been life‑changing and that maintaining those connections is a priority.

It very quickly gets you sight of and knowledge of a lot of the angel ecosystem in a city.
So you have access to many mentors who not only give you advice and critical feedback on what you are doing, but they are a resource and contacts for the future.
And of course all the founders that are in the program, and that's, that's the bit that definitely changed my life, and I hope to stay in touch with all of them.
