Student testimonials
Empower future entrepreneurs around the world
National Program
Angel Guzmán Tarazona – Lima, Perú
«This project is a two-in-one, it helps improve the financial situation of students while they create their own projects/businesses that provide them with tools to enter competitive universities. With my experience and my academic career I can say that Proyecta Mentory is without a doubt a fundamental piece to help young people develop all the potential they have within. I have seen up close everything behind Proyecta Mentory, and it is a solid initiative that has a business plan and long-term projections, so it is totally worth trusting in this initiative.»
Aurora Delgado – Piura, Perú
‘With our second call, we currently have more than 80 volunteers committed to meeting all the objectives. This is possible thanks to Proyecta Mentory… It is very valuable that Proyecta Mentory not only focuses on advising you on your projects, but also provides a space to market your businesses in a sales portal and program advertising on its website. For example, my youth organization «Aquamundo» has benefited from mentoring and we are working so that they you soon learn about the services we provide.»

«I feel that fear can hold us back a lot…And I feel it’s extremely important to take that step and really have people who will encourage us to take this step with great initiative, with a lot of joy and above all with a lot of planning. I really hope that this project not only keeps being as cool as it is, but to grow and find my hoomies from Paraguay there. I really hope you can participate.»
Palak Sharma Afaik – India
«I think it’s a very good mission. It’s aim is also very important because to take start ups and business ideas forward, they need a lot of mentorship or funds, so with the help of this project I think many startups and pre-existing business ideas can get help and grow efficiently…Don’t be afraid and submit your ideas to them.»
we’re here to all your questions
If I already have an existing project, can I still receive your mentoring?
Of course. If you have an existing project, Proyecta Mentory helps you have more scope, polish details, and focus on your objectives.
If I want to offer something through the Project Mentory sales portal, does it have to be a physical product?
It doesn’t have to be a physical product. The product or service you offer can be both physical and virtual. If it is physical, you must specify which regions/countries you can ship to. Don’t worry, we also advise you on how to distribute your product.
I am interested in several industries, which one should I choose to turn into a business? Or, I want to start a business but don't know about what to make it.
In the first meeting we can learn a little more about you and your interests, and we can give you mentoring to discover your true passion. We advise you and take talent tests to identify those areas in which you stand out exceptionally. Then, we guide you and provide mentoring to build a business based on that talent.
I want to start a business, but I can't put capital into it.
Don’t worry, that’s exactly why Proyecta Mentory was created. We will work with you to help you build your business. You will have several options to obtain your capital, such as presenting your idea to Proyecta Mentory in the annual contest and you will be able to win funds for your project, for us to help you run a fundraising campaign, etc.
How is Project Mentory supported financially?
Proyecta Mentory does not charge for advice, but at the end of each month/year (depending on what is agreed between Proyecta Mentory and the advised student), Proyecta Mentory keeps 10% of the income. This percentage is used to cover the operating expenses of Proyecta Mentory, that is, it is not for profit.
