We’re on a quest to guide young minds ready to tackle big world challenges. They’ve got ideas and energy but need the wisdom of those who’ve been there. That’s where you come in.
Got experience as an entrepreneur, innovator, scientist, coder, or creative? Your insights could be exactly what these young changemakers need to bring their visions to life. Ready to share your knowledge, inspire the next generation, and watch them grow into leaders who will shape our future?
Eye-level mentorship from industry experts, innovators, entrepreneurs, scientists, coders, or brand gurus. Our mentors are not afraid to roll up their sleeves to help youth shape their ideas, aim for big visions, and overcome challenges that come their way.
We are grateful for each one of them!

Selection process of a Moonshot Pirate mentor
After the initial contact with a potential mentor, either once they apply through our website or get recommended to us otherwise, we enter the qualification stage. In order to get to know potential mentors better, we schedule a call with them to understand their background and see whether our values are aligned. This is also an opportunity to answer any questions and see which of our programs are a good fit for them. As our mentors work with minors, we also require them to submit a police record prior to our cooperation.
I enjoyed my experience tremendously! Mentors have lots of experience to share with mentees and mentees have such unique perspectives to share with mentors. It’s a great opportunity to learn from each other. We help open each other’s minds to different ways of seeing ourselves and the world!
When I was asked, if I’d like to participate as a mentor, it was an instant yes. And it has been proven on all levels. Imagine, you get a notification at 2 o’clock in the morning, that your skills as a mentor are needed – that’s a Moonshot Pirates attitude! As a mentor, I’ve learned as much from the mentees as vice versa.
It has been an amazing experience to be a mentor at the Moonshot Pirates Bootcamp. Thanks to the program and the enthusiastic mentors, students started to question things, to think of solutions, and to act like entrepreneurs.
Many thanks for bringing me onboard your crazy pirate ship! I enjoyed it very much and am still feeling inspired.
In approaching the program with an open mind, ready to commit time and effort, and sharing thoughts, everyone will grow. Don’t hesitate to become a mentor! The Moonshot Pirates guidance incl. the program’s structure, the specific questions raised and the material provided helps you on your way. The rest is fun and learning from each other.
Intergenerational guidance is key to learning in all directions and dimensions. In giving life skill guidance, my mentees navigated being locked down while clarifying their goals, improving communication with their families, and setting personal values. These months were informative, fun, and inspiring for my mentees and me.
I am highly impressed by the bravery, resourcefulness, creativity, and dedication of my mentees. It has been a really fun, inspiring, and empowering journey so far and I am more than thankful to be able to participate in the program and to meet such great young women and men. It is more important than ever to create spaces where we all can connect and share our common humanity.
