The Member Advantage Program leverages the collective power of Startup Haven membership to negotiate startup and founder-relevant opportunities.
All of the opportunities listed here are either exclusive or best-in-class. We follow the 5-minute rule: within five minutes, if a member can Google a similar or better opportunity that is publicly available, then that opportunity is not likely to be a good fit for the Advantage Program. Many of the companies in our Advantage program also offer lesser, publicly available deals that everyone is eligible for — we don’t list those… because they often change… and because you know how to use Google.
Information on becoming a /Level 2 Startup Haven member is here.
We will continue to add new benefits to this program. If there is a great benefit you know about that is not on our list yet, please drop us an email and let us know. If it can be gotten… we’ll go get it!
