Intermediaries are organizations that play a fundamental role in encouraging, promoting, and facilitating business-to-business relationships and mentor-protégé partnerships. In addition to their many other functions, many organizations serve as intermediaries between the community and business, for businesses within an industry, for businesses within a geographic area, and for businesses with state and/or local governments. In their various capacities, many of these organizations accumulate information about programs that are offered by their members, in their community, or in their industry. As a result, these organizations are in a unique position to serve as a go-between for potential business-to-business relationships or mentor-protégé partnerships.
