SFBI has created a mentors’ platform with the goal of connecting our Cornell students and recent alumni with the vast expertise within our network. This is an outgrowth of our popular Sam Seltzer ’48 Mentors Forum and provides year-round access to our mentors.

Forums combine the expertise of our Cornell Family Business Fellows and access to Cornell faculty and our extensive SFBI global network. Forums are carefully curated and are unique to its constituent members. Areas of growth and exploration are driven by the members.
