The following addresses the challenge of effectively connecting mentors with student-run ventures at Arizona State University (ASU). Based on observations and interviews conducted with project sponsor Dr. Byrne and other mentors, the existing informal, referral based approach is inefficient, meaning that potential mentorship opportunities were lost. To streamline the process, a web platform was developed. This site enables ventures to create structured profiles highlighting concise value propositions and other key indicators, empowering mentors to proactively identify suitable ventures. The technical implementation utilized Next.js for the frontend, Firebase and Firestore for the authentication and storage, and TailwindUI for styling. The result is a user friendly and scalable minimal viable product.
