We began in 2012 as a business school project at Cambridge University where I was a masters student. From my dorm room I began working to connect students with mentors who could help them achieve their university admissions goals. Since then, talented young people across the globe have asked us to think more broadly. We are excited today to announce new service offerings to meet these needs! Our core belief since the beginning was that every hardworking individual deserves a mentor. Four years later, we believe it even more strongly, as we’ve now reached millions in over 100 countries around the world. We are on a mission to provide mentorship for the motivated. Today, we’re taking three big steps towards accomplishing this mission!
