Business Mentor NY – a program of Empire State Development

Program Update

Mentees and Mentors,

We appreciate your interest in mentorship. Please be advised that after March 31, 2024, the Business Mentor NY Program will cease to operate. However, you can continue to access mentoring services by contacting Entrepreneurship Assistance Centers in your area at esd.ny.gov/eac-directory to obtain one-on-one counseling with your current business idea or small business.

If you would like to continue offering pro bono mentoring services to entrepreneurs or small business owners, please email us at nylovessmbiz@esd.ny.gov with your core business skills, experience or education and your preferred service area.

Welcome

To participate in MicroMentor, you need to have an existing business or have taken some first steps to start your business (see examples here).

If you haven’t yet done those things, we encourage you to do so first and then revisit us to find a mentor.

If you already have a business, or have already taken the first steps to start one, please continue.
