How Entrepreneurs Work with Mentors
What: The UNCW CIE is excited to launch the Wilmington Innovation Forum: a monthly, one-hour program spotlighting the ideas, expertise, and research shaping our region’s future. Wilmington Innovation Forum will take place on the first Thursday of every month.
Each session features a UNCW faculty member or community expert sharing a 35–40-minute talk on their area of expertise, whether in technology, science, business, or other fields, followed by a 20-minute interactive Q&A. At its core, the forum is about knowledge sharing and collaborative learning. It’s an opportunity to explore new ideas, gain fresh insights, and connect university and community partners in meaningful conversations that drive innovation and growth.
This session, learn about: The differences in types of entrepreneurs and types of mentors, different types of support provided by mentors, tips for finding a mentor or for programs to match mentors with entrepreneurs.
Speaker: Seth Butler is an Assistant Professor at UNCW's Cameron School of Business, where he teaches and researches entrepreneurship. He received a PhD and MBA from The University of Alabama.
Who: Entrepreneurs, UNCW faculty, staff, and students.
Where: UNCW CIE
Cost: Free for CIE members, tenants, mentors, and coworkers. $5.00 for non CIE members.
