Mark’s accomplishments include successfully exiting a Rocklin, CA based enterprise that maintained hundreds of employees and generated over $200M in annual revenues.

Having scaled the entrepreneurial mountain and achieved many of his lifelong dreams, Mark has turned his attention and resources to helping the next generation of entrepreneurs succeed. He is Founding Partner of the Growth Factory, an early-stage venture capital fund and a nonprofit accelerator, on a mission to unleash the potential of 100 world class startups in the next 3-5 years.

When Mark is not company building, he can be found in his studio igniting the Entrepreneurial Revolution as host of The Mark Haney Show podcast, at cross-fit and yoga, or playing baseball in the backyard with his grandkids. He also serves as Past President of the Sacramento chapter of Entrepreneurs Organization (EO) and on various corporate and non-profit boards. He and his family devote time to helping military veterans through his “Allegiant Giving” non-profit. You can learn more about Mark at haneybiz.com.
