What Informa Markets loves most about Mentorloop:
- Connecting employees across divisions and countries
- Participants can establish goals and track their own progress
- 'Sentiment' ensures participants are having positive experiences
Blended Matching Approach
Self Match, Program Coordinator Matching
Smart matching tools were enabled to ensure that employees could drive their own matching experience or allow their Program Coordinator to match on their behalf.

Positive feedback from mentors/mentees
Another successful year of mentoring, feedback was consistently gathered from mentoring participants with some incredible qualitative feedback to match.

Before Mentorloop
We knew we wanted to bring a mentoring program to the organization as an added value to our Colleagues. Our Learning Team strives to drive a culture of knowledge sharing, skill development, and colleague engagement; and the organization, overall, felt a mentoring opportunity would be a great fit for this.
Program Impact
The mentoring program is the first program within our organization to cross divisions, providing colleagues an opportunity to enter a mentoring relationship with someone they may have never met otherwise.
We have included our DE&I initiatives in our sign-up form and have read great testimonials from the knowledge-sharing that is happening.
Looking to the Future
Our program has a steadily increasing matching rate and we hope to continue to grow by the end of 2023.
We would like to, one day, utilize the Group Loops function. Additionally, we will be participating in future Mentorloop Challenges and look forward to gathering data to support the mentoring program.

What Role Does Equity and Equality Play in Your Mentoring Program?
The right mentoring program should level the playing field to empower entire cohorts of people: workplaces, member associations, social groups and educational institutions. Equality should be a cherished value so that every individual can thrive—whoever they are, whatever their background, however they worship or whomever they love. But we can’t arrive at equality without it’s often forgotten partner, equity.
What does a Mentoring Program Coordinator do?
Being a Mentoring Program Coordinator is an incredibly rewarding experience that positively impacts the lives of many. And while mentoring programs don’t fully run themselves (even though Mentorloop can do a great deal of the heavy lifting!), they do require a point of contact that can steer the program in the right direction for the organisation that is running one.

In this post, we’ll look at how mentors can successfully build quality feedback into their mentoring.
