Mentorship
Guided by those who've been there.
Our mentorship program pairs emerging Filipino Canadian entrepreneurs with seasoned operators, founders, and executives who have built, scaled, and sold businesses. Whether you're starting out or scaling up, the right mentor can change your trajectory.
How it works
Apply as a mentee or mentor. We match based on stage, sector, and goals. Matches meet monthly — at a hub, over coffee, or virtually. The relationship lasts as long as it's useful, and many evolve into lifelong connections.
Become a mentor
If you've built a business, raised capital, led teams, or navigated the Canadian market, give back to the bayan by guiding the next wave. A few hours a month can make a decade of difference for a founder.
Find a mentor
Get matched with a mentor who has walked the path you're on — whether that's raising a seed round, hiring your first team, expanding to a new province, or navigating the regulatory landscape.
