Innovate Texas Tech Mentor Program (iTTU) serves as the cornerstone of entrepreneurship
and innovation at the Hub. Mentors are chosen for their experience, investment and
technical know-how, authority and resources to aid in the launch of new enterprises,
and willingness to support the west Texas entrepreneurial eco-system.
All TTUS mentors are available for office hours. Meet with some of the most innovative,
creative and seasoned experts in the venture space. In these one-on-one meetings,
angel and venture investors, leaders of manufacturer companies, attorneys, accountants,
technology experts, physicians, scientists and serial entrepreneurs share their insight,
experience and advice to help you take your startup to launch. We follow the MIT Venture
Mentoring Service (VMS) methodology.
