Business Guidance, Rooted in Community

At the 2024 H3 Summit, Rabbi Horowitz delivered a powerful call to support business within the community. Inspired by his words, a group of accomplished and community-minded business leaders came together with a shared vision: to create a lasting initiative that mentors and empowers local entrepreneurs at every stage of their journey.

This initiative unites a diverse group of seasoned professionals with real-world experience in launching, growing, and sustaining successful ventures. These mentors are not just advisors—they are partners in your growth, offering practical guidance to help business owners overcome challenges and make confident decisions.

Through one-on-one mentorship, peer learning, and targeted advice, entrepreneurs gain access to insight that would otherwise be out of reach. It’s not about theory or long-term consultancy—it’s about real conversations and strategies from those who’ve been there.

We believe that when local businesses thrive, the whole community benefits. Jobs are created. Families are supported. Values are passed on. And as mentees grow, they’re encouraged to give back—becoming mentors themselves and continuing the cycle of support and empowerment.

Every entrepreneur faces turning points. What makes the difference is timely, experienced guidance. Our mentors have faced similar challenges and emerged stronger. Now, they’re here to help you do the same—so you don’t have to face it alone.

This may sound
like you.

You know your business, but sometimes a session
or two with the right mentor makes all the difference.

You’re a business owner…

…running things well — most of the time. But sometimes you hit a brick wall.

You’re an aspiring founder…

…industrious, with a solid idea and plans for starting your own business — but unsure where to begin.

You have so many questions:

Cash Flow
Regulations
Hiring
Exit Plan
Acquisitions
Scaling
Raising Capital
Marketing
Accounts
Financial Planning
Goal-setting

Sometimes, all it takes is the right conversation to bring clarity and direction. A mentor who’s been there—offering guidance, encouragement, and the confidence to take your next step.

No cost. No catch. Just real experience, when you need it most.

They’ve faced tough decisions, overcome setbacks, and learned firsthand what it takes to build and sustain a successful venture. The Executive Board will be working with a large group of mentors from across the community that each bring their own unique perspective, but all share a common goal: to help others succeed with confidence, clarity, and purpose. Whether you’re navigating a startup challenge, seeking a second opinion, or simply looking for direction, our mentors are here to walk alongside you—with practical advice, honest insight, and genuine care.

OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM

Behind every successful mentoring experience is a dedicated team working to ensure the process runs smoothly, purposefully, and professionally. Our Management Team is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of J Business Link. They act as the central hub—managing applications, carefully triaging mentees, and thoughtfully matching them with the most suitable mentors. Beyond logistics, the team ensures every engagement is meaningful and aligned with JBL’s values. They provide ongoing support to both mentors and mentees, monitor outcomes, and gather feedback to continually refine the programme. They also serve as the key link between the Executive Board and the wider JBL network—reporting progress, raising opportunities for development, and ensuring the organisation stays aligned with its mission. Committed, capable, and community-driven, the management team plays a vital role in turning JBL’s vision into day-to-day impact.

THE JBL APPROACH

JBL isn’t a coaching service or consultancy—it’s a network of experienced business leaders offering focused, practical mentorship.

You’ll be matched with a mentor who truly understands your world—because they’ve lived it. They’ve built, led, and adapted businesses, and they know the challenges first-hand.

Through one or two high-impact sessions, remote or in person, you’ll gain honest, experience-backed guidance tailored to your needs.

There’s no ongoing commitment or one-size-fits-all approach—just timely support to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Whether you’re scaling, pivoting, or starting out—JBL gives you access to the kind of insight that only comes from real experience.

How it works

Apply

Getting started is simple. Complete our online application form, providing key details about your background, business stage, and the challenges or goals you’re currently facing. The form is thorough, helping us understand your needs and ensuring you’re a good fit for the mentorship programme.

Assessed

Once submitted, your application is reviewed confidentially and carefully. Our team triages each submission to evaluate suitability and determine how we can offer the most value. This step helps us ensure that every mentorship experience is focused, relevant, and productive.

Appointed

If accepted, you’ll be thoughtfully matched with a mentor whose expertise and personality best align with your goals. We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—every match is made with purpose. You’ll receive full details ahead of your session, including timing, format (in person or virtual), and what to expect.

Attend

You’ll meet with your mentor for one or two high-impact sessions tailored to your specific needs. These conversations are practical, direct, and built around your goals—giving you space to ask questions, gain clarity, and walk away with real-world guidance. Afterwards, you’re encouraged to take what you’ve learned and begin applying it independently.
