VENTURES
We partner with the ambitious to go on ventures together to create a better future.
We do this through our ventures studio where we invest, build MVP’s and ventures together with startups.
Ad-ventures is
our investing approach.
WHAT IS IT?
At Neu, we are driven by our purpose of ‘making work better for a new world’. We do this through our client engagements, but for a few years now we have been exploring another way….This we call, Ad-ventures!
Through Ad-ventures we provide expertise and venture capital to start-ups and founders who are aligned with our values and purpose.
We do this through a tailored (we don’t do cookie cutter) model of investment that supports their growth, embedding new ways of thinking whilst refining the approach in a seamless and pragmatic way.
We call it Ad-ventures because this is how we see it, our own adventure into the world of venture capital investment.

HOW DO WE HELP?
Venture building
Driven to build and scale groundbreaking new ventures that shape your industry and drive tangible impact? How about driving financial and strategic growth with new business models in new markets?
Your corporate mothership advantage is what can help you build new ventures but it might also be the thing holding you back (ahem bureaucracy).
We help you build your own dedicated Growth Division or Venture engine within your organisation. By establishing this self-sustaining engine of innovation, you will continuously drive financial and strategic impact for decades to come.
Venture scaling
Already launched a venture which isn’t scaling as hoped? Unsure as to how to navigate the early phases of venture growth? We can help you boost your venture’s growth, or if needed, transform it, and turn it around
Our Venture Scaling service will help you take stock of your in-flight ventures to determine what’s working, what isn’t, and either help accelerate its growth or, if things aren’t going as planned, help you get things back on track.
Our team has decades of startup operating experience and have led startups from
Inception, through growth, to exit.
We know what questions to ask to find the right answers to get your venture (back) on track to growth.
