As the name suggests, Mentors meet Members was yet another fantastic event held by STARTBOARD where we invited all our respected mentors to take out time from their busy schedule to meet with our teams and their members in order to bridge any gap and to get to know each team better than before!

The day started with a lot of excitement and anticipation as one after the other teams arrived ahead of the mentors. They were all excited as well nervous to meet their idol face to face and to be able to ask them questions directly was a huge opportunity. The time struck and all our mentors arrived and the event began with a lot of enthusiasm and energy.

We organized some delicious pizza and refreshments for our teams and the mentors. Our chairman Prof. Chen Chun Shan kicked start the event with an opening speech where he mentioned about all our teams and their achievements and included special thanks to each mentor for attending the event and spending their precious time with our teams. It meant a lot to STARTBOARD to see that our mentors support us so much

All of our teams each got the chance to present their companies to the mentors and spoke about their business idea. Our mentors were all very proud of the teams and showed a lot of interest in our team’s business ideas.

During the time when they interacted directly with each other, our mentors exchanged contacts with our new teams and congratulated them on joining STARTBOARD.

We at STARTBOARD are extremely happy and proud that all our hardwork and paid off well and the event was a big success. We would like to thank each and every team member and our respected mentors for coming and helping us make the event a grand one! Thank you very much for all your support and help.

We are so grateful to our mentors who despite being some of the most influential people from Taiwan’s corporate world, made time from their busy schedule to visit us and our booth and make us feel that they are so proud of our work and our team members.

 

Last but not the least, we would like to thank every team member of STARTBOARD family for their undying support and constant help and support without which STARTBOARD would not be what it is today. Thank you everyone who visited us and our teams’ booths. We look forward to attending more of such events like Meet Taipei and hope to continue meeting enthusiastic entrepreneurs of tomorrow!
