What EY can do for you

  • Are you looking for meaningful connections across a community of like-minded entrepreneurs?
  • Do you seek to build a global network that can benefit you personally and professionally?
  • Could your enterprise benefit from the wisdom of other entrepreneurial trailblazers?
  • Could your knowledge help to guide entrepreneurs who are just starting out?

Join a purposeful community of ambitious entrepreneurs and gain access to the EY entrepreneurial network.

For more than 30 years, EY has been working with unstoppable entrepreneurs from around the world, to help accelerate their journey from start-up to market leader. EY is convening an unparalleled global community of entrepreneurial alumni from its entrepreneurial networks – including EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™, EY Entrepreneurial Winning Women™, EY Entrepreneurs Access Network and EY Ripples.

Entrepreneurs are builders of a better working world. They not only have great ideas, but also the drive to make them a reality. They use their fresh thinking and hard work to realize positive social change — creating jobs and innovating new solutions to global challenges.

By building meaningful mentoring relationships across entrepreneurial networks, we can find ways to work with purpose, learn from one another and build a community of dreamers and doers.

  • Timing

    Mentoring relationships are initiated and built in two six-month cohorts annually:

    • September cohort: Sign up in August; mentoring occurs September – February
    • March cohort: Sign up in February; mentoring occurs March – August
  • Smart matches and virtual meet-ups

    • Mentoring matches are suggested by an AI-based mentoring platform
    • Matching is based on individual needs, interests and preferences
    • Matches meet at a frequency that works for them – we suggest at least one hour each month
  • Choose the right role for you

    • Mentoring matches are encouraged to work toward defined mutual and individual goals for the six-month timeframe
    • Mentors have typically scaled their businesses across markets and play a pivotal role by offering guidance and feedback to earlier stage entrepreneurs
    • Mentees are typically leading small or medium-sized businesses at the community or city level and gain one-on-one access to the hard-won experience of the world's leading entrepreneurs
