You're likely reading this because you've reached a point in your career where you're eager to give back to the tech startup community. As you know, starting and building a tech firm is hard. However, by leaning in with your experience and knowledge, you can provide invaluable guidance and support to early-stage entrepreneurs who are just starting out. </span></p>\n<p><span>Whether you are a serial entrepreneur, a seasoned executive or an industry expert, your skills and insights can help startups navigate the ups and downs of building their business. By taking this step, you'll have the opportunity to share your experience, knowledge, and battle scars while expanding your network and making a positive impact with Ottawa's next generation of leaders.</span></p>\n<p><span>What does this commitment look like? It’s up to you. This is a low-touch, flexible volunteer position for you to put in the time you have available or are willing to give back. All introductions to mentees will be made through our mentorship tool called Mentorloop.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\"><span style=\"color: #222222\">We would love to hear from you if you:</span></span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Have previous or current experience at a technology company, ideally in a role with leadership responsibilities (Founder, C-level, VP, Director).</span></li>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Are familiar with the startup lifecycle and/or have experience scaling a team through various stages of growth.</span></li>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Can assess companies' challenges and provide appropriate questions, insights or guidance.</span></li>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Have strong emotional intelligence with an ability to build trusting relationships, and strong communication skills (especially as a great listener).</span></li>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Have demonstrated experience as a leader, advisor, expert and/or mentor and can provide references and details of your experience in your profile.</span></li>\n<li><br><span style=\"color: #222222\">Want to give back to the Ottawa startup community</span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #222222\"> </span></em></p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #222222\">Invest Ottawa’s </span></em><span><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://www.investottawa.ca/venture-path/\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Lato',sans-serif\">Venture Path</span></a></span><em><span style=\"color: #222222\"> is designed to shorten the path to growth.
