Pepekash Compass
Ongoing mentoring for startups and MSMEs.
Weekly, hands-on, and built around where you actually are — idea stage, scaling, or somewhere in between.
Who it's for
Two kinds of founders, one kind of mentoring.
Startup mentoring
Early-stage founders navigating fundraising, go-to-market, and the scaling decisions that don't have obvious answers yet.
MSME growth mentoring
Established small and medium enterprises seeking structured, hands-on support to grow past where they've plateaued.
What we actually help with
Pulled straight from what founders have come to us for.

Two idea-stage founders — social media and edtech — arrived with no leadership bandwidth or focus. We connected them with VCs and investors, structured their delivery team, and built out a real business plan.
