The Company
MAVAN is a growth consultancy that delivers a plug-and-play, multidisciplinary growth team to its clients. We’re not an agency – we act more like an in-house team, and we think & act like owners. In fact, the majority of MAVAN experts have experience working at some top companies in the world – Uber, Apple, Zynga, DoorDash, Netflix. We work with innovative startups that have big growth challenges to solve, often coming in and running the growth and marketing strategy as an extension of their internal team. We help our clients move fast, and in order to deliver on that we bring in the best experts in the industry to consult & execute in the specific areas they are most skilled. Clients are happy because they get an unparalleled growth team at a fraction of the cost of hiring internally for the exact amount of time they need it.
