Real work. Real world. Real early.
This is why Zero Nine exists. We find young athletes a real day — or a real week — inside a working company. A teller, an analyst, a wealth manager, a stockbroker. Someone who'll put them in the fire and show them what's possible after the game.
A friend who runs a bank gives one of our athletes a week as a teller, an analyst, a wealth manager. That week can change the rest of a life — and it costs almost nothing to give.
Opportunities,
real ones.
A sense of what we arrange. Each one is a genuine role with a real mentor — built around the athlete, at no cost to them.
From handshake
to signed.
We do the finding and the paperwork. The athlete just shows up ready to learn.
We find the door
We go to the people we know — banks, firms, founders — and turn a relationship into a real opportunity for an athlete.
We make it official
The placement agreement lives in the athlete's portal. They read it, sign it on screen, and keep a copy — no chasing.
They step into the fire
The athlete spends real time in a real role, with a mentor in their corner — and walks out with experience that lasts.
Mentors & hosts.
The companies and leaders who give their time. Yours could be here.
Illustrative partners — your real hosts will appear here as they come on board.
Your next opportunity lives in the portal.
Once you're signed, the internships and mentorships we line up for you show up in your portal — agreements ready to read and sign on screen.
Open the portal →Open a door. We'll handle the rest.
A desk for a week, a standing mentorship, a day in the fire. If you can give the time, we'll shape it into something real — and manage every detail.
