Each entrepreneur will be matched with 2 Allies based on the relevance of the Allies' expertise and experience for the request of the entrepreneur. There will be a total of 3 separate sessions, spread over 3 to 4 months; each session is around 45 minutes.

Session 1 : 
During this session, entrepreneurs share the challenges their business faces or areas they would like to improve with their assigned Allies. Following this meeting, the Allies provide a set of recommendations or ideas the entrepreneur can explore for its business.

Session 2:
The second session is dedicated to follow-up on the implementation of solutions provided after the first session. The Allies will continue to work with the entrepreneur to improve their business and provide relevant piece of information.

Session 3:
The final session is for the entrepreneur to share other concerns and challenges.
