| Abstract: |
| Mentorverse is a platform to connect mentees with mentors. It aims to decrease the industry-academia gap by establishing a marketplace of mentors that can be used by students as well as professionals. |
| What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
| Right now, people don’t find mentors easily. They have to ask people or search through LinkedIn and message them personally and it is highly unlikely that they will reply. With our platform, it’s easy to find mentors, schedule meetings, and pay them for their services and time as well. |
| Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
| There are 3 main users of this platform:
1. Youth, as they usually need guidance on important aspects of life and career
2. Educational Institutes that want to conduct training for teachers and students.
3. Companies that want to train their employees and equip them with some skills. |
| How will the solution works |
| It’s a web app that would allow users to sign-up and make their accounts on the platform. The user will be able to filter mentors based on different features. On confirming a time slot from available slots, the user will proceed towards the payment option and On confirmation, an email will be sent to the mentor and mentee with joining details. In the case of mentors, after sign-up, they will be asked about their area of expertise and availability slots. |
| Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
| ADPList can be considered as our competitor but it’s restricted to the design community with no payment system. Hello, Mentor Pakistan is another competitor but it's a Facebook group and not targeted towards institutes and not a full-fledged solution like ours. |
