Announcing the Inaugural Newark Venture Partners Accelerator Class

This has been an eventful first year at Newark Venture Partners. We opened our 25,000 sqft co-working space (with super high-speed internet) in Q1 2016. Then, we announced the initial close of the fund in May and began making our first Seed and Series A investments. Today we are excited to have launched the NVP Labs Accelerator and are excited to be showcasing the companies in our inaugural accelerator class.

The 9 companies in our class are participating in a 3-month long program that runs from September — November 2016. We have developed a focused curriculum and built out a support network to help our companies develop and scale. Furthermore, our corporate Limited Partners Audible, Dun & Bradstreet and Prudential Financial have opened up their employee rosters to be mentors for our companies. Additionally, we have built an on-site team of ‘In-Residence Experts’ to support our accelerator companies, including developers, designers, business associates, and sales consultants.
