The mentors must have a minimum of seven-years experience in the music industry, and will be paired with one of the exceptional, hand-picked Keychange participants all chosen as the leaders of tomorrow by a panel of international industry experts.

If you would like to volunteer to be a we.grow mentor, you can apply now through Keychange and shesaid.so’s google form. They welcome applications from all genders, all backgrounds, and all countries.
