An engaged membership committed to mutual success
By design, Startup Alliance takes steps to ensure the quality of the network and the quality of the interactions between members. It starts with comprehensive profiles so members gain deeper insight about the members they interact with. Another key difference is the members commitment pledge.
Special Interest Groups (SIGs)
Launched in Phase Two
Our SIGs are enhanced mastermind groups where members safely gather in small groups with entrepreneurs they get to know and trust. Each SIG has a specific focus and members typically belong to the several SIGs that most precisely meet their current needs. Read the blog post introducing SIGs.
Our SIGs cover 10 essential topics providing entrepreneurs at all levels of experience with opportunities to overcome challenges through interactions with their fellow SIG members.
- Business Formation
- Capitalization
- Customer discovery, Growth & Marketing
- Ideation, Product & Differentiation
- KPIs & Analytics
- Mergers & Acquisitions
- Ownership & Leadership
- Partnerships
- People & Culture
- Pricing, Revenue and Sales
Mentor members can create private SIGs and offer discounted dues to their networks and / or mentees.
