Mentor a Team

Contact Us


One of the primary purposes of the MRS Entrepreneurship Challenge is education. A big part of this is giving participating teams a chance to interact directly with a volunteer mentor who can help guide the development of their entry. This need not be done face-to-face. Email and conference call consultation can be a tremendous plus, especially for our international participants.

If you are an experienced entrepreneur, venture investor, or service provider (for example, a patent attorney with startup experience) and you would like to contribute your time to the competition, please email your resume to entrepreneurs@mrs.org to participate. Upon acceptance, your resume and email contact information will be posted here for the competitions teams to consider. This will allow the teams to survey the available mentors and find one that best matches their needs. (Please note that judges cannot be mentors).

If you are an Entrepreneurship Challenge participant and would like the help of a volunteer mentor, you can browse the posted mentor resumes below. Feel free to contact any mentor by email who has not already been matched with a team.

The following individuals have volunteered to participate as mentors:
