Join us for an inspiring morning of meaningful conversations, new connections and shared experiences at this winter's edition of the Shanghai Mentor Walk!



About Shanghai Mentor Walk

Shanghai Mentor Walk was started in 2015, after the immense success of Beijing Mentor Walks. Mentor Walks bring together established women leaders and emerging women leaders in our community to connect, learn, mentor and share experiences. As they walk, they discuss their professional and personal challenges, successes, aspirations, and lessons learned.

Each year, Shanghai Mentor Walk kicks off in March and closes in November with a large group mentor and mentee gathering. The walks are co-organized by a group of volunteer organizations, and each organization coordinates a different month of the Mentor Walk.

Our Mentors & Mentees

Mentors and Mentees come from a diverse variety of backgrounds including, international development, foreign affairs, law, finance and banking, business development, marketing, public relations, humanitarian and non-profit work, corporate social responsibility, academia, entrepreneurship, hospitality, healthcare, technology and media, sustainability, energy, international trade, and more.

Mentors are at the top of their fields. Whether in senior management in a major company, a thought leader, a business owner, or simply a force of nature in their professions, they've worked hard to get where they are and are high achievers. With their experience, they are role models to other inspired women in our community.

Mentees are either in their early professional years, have been in their career for a number of years now, or are entrepreneurs looking to learn from other enterprising women. Mentees may be hitting their stride professionally, are becoming a key contributor to their company, or growing their experience and expertise. They invest in themselves and other women to keep that momentum going. Mentees are not high school or university students, but rather professionals making their mark in the working world.

November 21st walk is jointly organized by IPWS, Swedcham China, and BeneluxChamber in Shanghai.
