Innovation Week: Speed Mentoring

Do you have an idea for an invention but are struggling with next steps? Are you considering founding or participating in a startup company, and looking to receive feedback? Members of the Case Western Reserve University community are invited to a Speed Mentoring event during Innovation Week Monday, Oct. 28, from 4 to 6 p.m. This event will be held in partnership with Jumpstart’s Burton D. Morgan Mentoring Program.

This action-packed mentoring event is focused on providing CWRU faculty members, students and alumni with an opportunity to share their idea—whether just conceptual or ready for launch—with experienced faculty inventors, entrepreneurs, investors and innovators. 

The mentors bring valuable experience from a range of industries spanning healthcare to technology to finance to culinary. They’ve worked at companies such as Google, Amazon, eBay, Best Buy, Philips Healthcare, Omnova Solutions and more.

Invest two hours, gain actionable insights and expand your network.  

Refreshments will be provided. Registration will close at noon Friday, Oct. 25. Register for the event on Oct. 28.
