Run by the Tennessee Advanced Energy Business Council (TAEBC) in partnership with Launch Tennessee, the program equips promising young companies with the tools and connections to raise capital and scale their businesses to market success.
“The ‘Energy Mentor Network’ is set up to create more quality start-ups in Tennessee,” said Cortney Piper, TAEBC Executive Director. “Companies that go through the program work with an Entrepreneur-In-Residence, a marketing mentor and a finance mentor. They are given tools to create a solid business plan and funding opportunities once they graduate.”
