Mentors at Launchpad LA
Launchpad LA is a mentorship-driven accelerator. Our mentors include top entrepreneurs, executives, investors, and advisors who are passionate about the success of our portfolio companies and the growth of the Los Angeles startup ecosystem. We involve mentors in many ways: one-on-one meetings; product/tech deep-dive sessions; talks and panels; facilitation of business development and fundraising; and general advice and introductions.
