As a part of the one-on-one networking opportunities, the mentor program is an incredible resource for both mentors and attendees at the SXSW EDU Conference & Festival. With the tenth annual event on the horizon, the call for mentors is in full swing.

The mentor program at SXSW EDU facilitates purpose-driven connections between experienced professionals and solution-seeking attendees.

Sharing insight, experience, and advice from your professional journey can be highly rewarding. As a mentor you will provide guidance and solutions, but also benefit by connecting with, and learning from, your mentees.

“I was honored to be a mentor this year and that experience really made an impact on me. Those 5 short sessions made me realize that I am made for more than I give myself credit for. While I had the opportunity to advise and inspire others - I was the one who walked away motivated to pursue new ambitions. It was an amazing win-win experience!"
–Kari Potter
