The Partner Network

The Partnership Network builds the roads. We create the distribution and placement pathways that your mentors and thought leaders travel on, from media and platforms to campuses and companies. Every partnership is designed for mutual benefit and measured outcomes.

What we do

We build distribution that powers learning and knowledge creation

We form relationships with media outlets, content platforms, learning institutions, and communities where seekers of mentorship gather. This enables bookings, licensing, and reuse for Story Circle residents, plus high quality program pipelines for Mentor Accelerator. Think bookings and placement similar to a speakers bureau, combined with curated community matching.
