Austmine Seeking Virtual METS Mentors for Export Hubs

Want to help someone out with your exporting experience?

Austmine is looking for volunteer mentors located anywhere in Australia for our VIC and WA Export Hubs. This is a great opportunity to “give back” to the industry and assist other Austmine members without an onerous time commitment.

Austmine’s Export Hubs are seeking to accelerate export market entry of METS companies through capability development and linkages with international growth opportunities. Entering new markets is always challenging and there are huge benefits in talking to someone who has “been there done that”. Therefore, mentoring will be central to the overarching goal of the Export Hubs.

We are looking for potential mentors across all export aspects of business from product development, business development, legal/regulatory, financial, marketing and more.

We will create a pool of potential mentors who would be happy to volunteer approximately one hour of their time to METS companies considering exporting either for the first time or to a new market.

Our intention is to match companies to mentors in the pool, as and when needed, based on the individual company’s query. Assistance being sought could be for example, general discussions, sharing opportunities and challenges, cultural tips, introductions to contacts, etc. 

If you are willing to help like-minded companies on their export journey and would like to be included in the mentor pool, or if you would like further information, please contact Marianne Cummings on 0401029813 or [email protected].
