How Can Industry Help?

Sponsor a Student

Sponsoring a student helps to unlock potential, promote equity and inclusivity, and foster diversity. We want to support students from any walk of life to access the Knoei Colab.

Through your support, you’ll not only enable promising young innovators to access the resources and opportunities they need to excel, but you’ll also contribute to your company’s corporate social responsibility efforts.

Plus, you’ll be providing students with the chance to develop critical problem-solving, adaptability and creative skills, which will ultimately drive innovation and growth in your industry.

Mentorship Matters

Providing mentors for the Knoei Colab program is an excellent opportunity to engage and develop your existing employees.

As mentors, your staff will gain valuable leadership experience, broaden their professional networks, and deepen their understanding of the industry’s evolving needs.

As a mentor they’ll be guiding and supporting the next generation of professionals, imparting their knowledge and expertise to help students navigate their career paths.

Mentors are an essential part of the Colab, connecting students with real-life expertise and shaping their experience and ideas.
It’s often life-changing for the mentor, too.
