Any advice on how or where to find mentors?

Looking for suggestions or advice on where to seek mentor introductions for self funded searcher. I am looking for a platform company to acquire in the digital marketing agency space with which to do future roll ups/tuck in acquisitions with. I would benefit from wisdom and experience from those who have 'been there, done that' and am looking for that ongoing mentor/mentee relationship. Any suggestions, resources or introductions would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Link, try reaching out to a handful of the investment bankers with a track record in the space. They've got a relevant rolodex and are motivated to build/nurture relationships with the industry players.
