    Overview

    Mentorship is a cornerstone of the SayPro Monthly Science and Innovation Competition. Recognizing that innovation thrives with guidance and exchange, SayPro provides structured access to experienced mentors throughout the competition. These mentors—drawn from academia, industry, research institutions, and innovation ecosystems—support participants as they navigate the stages of idea development, research, and project execution.


    Purpose of Mentorship

    The mentor collaboration model aims to:

    • Strengthen the scientific and practical quality of submissions.
    • Provide technical and strategic guidance tailored to each team’s project scope.
    • Offer feedback loops that help refine ideas, methods, and outcomes.
    • Encourage professional growth and networking among emerging innovators.

    Mentor Engagement Throughout the Process
