Mentors For Incubatees MIIF
Mentors will play a key role in guiding the incubatee both on the knowledge aspect as well as on the implementation aspect. It is proposed to have two types of mentors-Faculty mentors and Industry Expert mentors. Faculty mentors will primarily be teachers, who are involved in class room teaching/research/innovation and have been mentoring university students for knowledge gain and its application in professional domain. Mentoring an incubatee may be a new proposition for a faculty mentor, but while interacting with the incubatee, the faculty mentor will find a great opportunity to explore knowledge based application areas. The Industry Expert mentors have a firsthand experience about the intricacy in relevant business domain. They will be in best position to share their experiences with the incubatees and will be able to guide them with a real world perspective. The faculty mentor and industry expert mentor will complement each other and create a win-win situation for themselves as well as for the incubat.
