With the support and experience of the MIT Center for Entrepreneurship professors, the business mentoring program, performed at an MBA level, will begin its first workshop in January 2012.

Brought for the first time in Romania in 2010 by the Post-Privatization Foundation, with the support of Entrepreneurship Ventures Inc. (USA), the program perfects and improves managerial abilities to consolidate their respective businesses in a sustainable way. By going through all the evolutionary stages of a business, Romaian entrepreneurs have the opportunity to benefit from the experience of top mentors from the MIT Center for Entrepreneurship : Kenneth Morse, Laura Morse and William Aulet.

Alongside the three mentors from the MIT Center for Entrepreneurship, participants will take part in five intensive training sessions spread over the course of six months. The courses will be centered on key aspects for developing a solid business : sales strategies, marketing, creating action value for operational excellence, leadership and financing for development.

The program is thought on a level of exigence and preparation suitable for an MBA and especially addresses already established entrepreneurs, executive directors and management teams of Romanian companies, together with companies from neighbouring countries (such as : Hungary, Ukraine, Moldavia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia).

The number of places on the program is limited. Enrolment is conditioned by filling in an application form available at www.businessmentoring.ro and will remain open until January 6th 2012. Further information on the Business Mentoring Program, on workshop timetables and on ways to participate can be found on the same website. The first workshop of the program will take place on the 18th and 19th of January 2012 in Bucharest.
