Overview

Antler operates a distributed scout network alongside its flagship Founder Residency program. Scouts identify exceptional founders and early-stage startups, source and screen investment opportunities, evaluate founding teams and business ideas, and connect potential founders with Antler's residency programs.

The scout role focuses on pre-ideation (Day Zero) through seed stage, identifying the strongest people in a scout's network and converting potential founders into Antler cohort participants. Antler has posted Founder Scout internship positions on Greenhouse, indicating a structured recruitment process.

The scout program extends Antler's reach beyond its 30+ physical locations, creating a distributed deal flow engine that feeds into the residency and investment pipeline. Given Antler's volume (443 deals in 2024), the scout network plays a significant role in maintaining deal flow at scale.

Questions about this program

Is Antler currently accepting external scouts?

Current external-scout intake is not established. The reviewed Benelux listing and Helsinki internship were marked closed as of October 2, 2026, and the NTNU internship deadline passed in 2025. A visible application for a Visiting Investment Analyst internship is a separate role.

What compensation did the historical Benelux scout listing describe?

It described rewards per referred entrepreneur and advertised up to €2,500 for each investment made. Those are historical Benelux terms, not confirmed current or universal terms.

Who could apply for the historical NTNU scout internship?

It required current NTNU student status and English fluency, with preference for students in their final or second-to-last year. Venture-capital knowledge was optional.

What were the application deadline and route for the NTNU opportunity?

The listing gave November 30, 2025 as the deadline and linked a Google application form. The deadline has passed, and current form availability was not verified.
