Mentors are folks who’ve been there and done that and can help founders navigate the challenges of startup life - whether they’re tackling a growth problem or they just need a listening ear. That’s why TIA School is glad to announce the launch of our standalone [Mentorship Program](. Through this program, founders will receive one-on-one guidance from Southeast Asia's top tech founders and expert leaders who will be able to guide them on their entrepreneurial journeys and help them build strong, successful companies.
