About Newton

Newton Venture Program helps you make sense of the venture capital world with a mission to level the playing field for people from typically overlooked and underestimated backgrounds - ensuring that the next generation of investors represent the world we live in.

Launched in 2020 - a joint venture between Phoenix Court (LocalGlobe VC) and London Business School with founding partner, SVB UK

Combining the best of executive education with insights from the most experienced practitioners across venture

Robust training programs ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to thrive in venture capital to create a more accessible and diverse ecosystem

Our Values

Disrupt the venture ecosystem and drive positive impact

We're excited to disrupt the venture ecosystem to enact positive change. 


We believe the default status quo is not an acceptable state.

Talent is universally distributed, but opportunity is not. Newton gives opportunity to those who may not otherwise have the path to realise their full potential.

Put learners at the centre of every decision

Learners are at the centre of every decision we make.

Every decision is focused on what benefits the learner. We spend time listening, collecting feedback, and continually iterating our program in partnership with our learners.

Adopt a team-first mindset

Trust is foundational.


We are collaborative and trusting team players at Newton; no one is an individual contributor. The expectation is to get involved, support, and help shape the program, company, and community together.
