Mentoring - BFF


Boosting Female Founders Mentoring
I am excited to announce that I have been selected to provide expert mentoring to women owned and led startups, as part of the Boosting Female Founders initiative!
The Government’s Boosting Female Founders Initiative (or, “BFF”) provides women-led startups with access to grants and mentoring to help them succeed and grow.
Under BFF, eligible startups can receive up to four hours of one-on-one advice from an expert mentor.
As a mentor I have a range of skills and expertise relevant to startups – including exporting, intellectual property, marketing and raising capital.
I am proud to be part of the team of mentors that to date, have delivered over 725 hours of mentoring under BFF – with more expected to come.
The top outcomes reported by participating startups include increased confidence, expanded networks, and refined business plans.
For example, I have assisted service based businesses models where the founders were close to burn out to become online learning programs that can now be easily adapted for new client sectors and audiences. When I hear a mentor tell me that they have more clarity, more confidence and the ability to grow and scale their business from the impacts we have on their business it is a wonderful moment and for many the long term mentoring relationship begins with me.
I encourage all female founders and entrepreneurs to check out the Australian Resource Directory for Women Entrepreneurs. This Directory complements BFF and contains a collection of relevant programs, funding sources, networks, mentors and tools to support women entrepreneurs.
If we are matched, it will be absolute honour to spend 4 hours with you and to help you your business journey.

Rachael said this about our sessions:
Mia Maze has an incredible range of expertise, and a superb communication style for sharing her knowledge. We engaged with Mia as a mentor through the Boosting Female Founders program, and her insights were invaluable in a pivotal stage of our expansion. I can personally recommend Mia as an advisor for other businesses in a steep growth trajectory, who want to maintain their core culture and quality controls.
