At Techstars, we are dedicated to helping founders succeed by providing unparalleled support and lifetime access to our global network. While we provide the capital and resources necessary for growth, the mentors, who guide founders through every stage of their journey, are the backbone of our accelerator programs.

We couldn't do this without our dedicated network of over 1,500+ mentors who support and guide Techstars founders around the world.

“Our mentor network is extraordinary, and our All-Star Mentors are the people who consistently go above and beyond for founders. The 2025 All-Star Mentors have shown up time and again with generosity, care, and a meaningful commitment of time and energy to the companies they support," said Carly Murphy-Forcade, Global Mentor Engagement at Techstars.

"They bring diverse experience and perspectives, and serve as trusted partners as founders work through complex challenges. I am incredibly grateful for the role they play in helping founders move faster, think bigger, and build stronger companies.”

Each year, the top mentors are nominated by accelerator program teams to be designated as an All-Star Mentor for the previous year. The honor is reserved for those who have gone above and beyond to help founders succeed.
