Mentoring and resources

In addition to access to a co-working space, members receive mentoring, professional development and networking opportunities, and more.  

Coming from a science background, Modular Realms founder Annabelle found opportunities to learn from industry professionals most valuable. She says, “I’ve had so many fantastic experiences through Start-Up Studio, but the best for me have been access to a number of mentors in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. It was from speaking to different experts and awesome people that I learned things like how to approach manufacturers, how to build a marketing strategy, and got advice on IP. All the things I’d never been taught I could go and learn in one to one sessions while asking questions relevant to my business.” Read more about Annabelle’s experience
