Thanks to the invaluable support and unwavering confidence we received from Newchip, we successfully navigated through our second round of investment meetings. From the very beginning, Newchip has been an indispensable partner in our entrepreneurial journey. Their expertise in guiding and preparing us for investor interactions has been instrumental in our growth and success.

“Appears to be a scam”

Alex B.
5/10/23

Newchip appears to be a scam: 1. Either all or most of the companies in the group I was part of were unhappy with them. 2. They have extensive requirements before they will make any introductions. 3. I had issues getting through some of those requirements because they were unavailable. 4. They market a money back guarantee but there are all sorts of fine print that are not there at all in their marketing. 5. They didn't come through with their promises to me. 6. We got zero value out of it

Learned so much more in their 6-month program than I ever learned in my many years at business school. Their real world applications were remarkable. It was amazing to experience building my company from ground up then selling it afterwards. I wouldn't have been able to reach this point of success if not for the wonderful coaches at Newchip. My what's, why's, how's, and when's – they really took the time to answer them all!

Their accelerator programs are very informative and I would recommend them even to the veteran CEOs out there. The sessions let you mingle with other founders so there's an abundance of best practices shared.
The best part is that they helped us raise capital for our digital marketing start-up without taking equity. So our business remains entirely our own. Happy to report that we are now equipped to help smaller businesses grow faster too.

It means so much to learn that you're not alone and that other people have already walked the path you're trying to take now. This program helped me to find real mentors who are knowledgeable and supportive. They guided me and helped me connect with other founders. It didn't take me long to understand that the number one thing I was missing was confidence. Today, I'm excited to see our startup taking its first steps, and I know we have a promising future ahead of us.

Joining this Accelerator program has been the best decision ever! They made fundraising so much easier for me! They did a great job teaching me how to raise capital and, most importantly, how to do it quickly and effectively. My cohort was great; I met really talented people who helped me rethink my pitch and take my message to the next level. They opened the doors to a whole new world for me, a world full of new connections, valuable skills, and hands-on knowledge. Thank you!

Very smooth experience. A quick and effective application process. I received answers to all my questions; the team was really supportive and professional. They have good perks for startups: the program is equity-free and opens doors to excellent networking opportunities. I've gained hands-on knowledge and valuable skills to start and scale my business.

We have been working with Newchip for a couple of times now and never get disappointed. Even as our capital requirements increase, the resources and connections they give us always fill the gap. No regrets investing in their program as they come back a hundredfold.

Verified purchase

If you are open to learning to better your startup business, you need to take this course.

You learn things that are not taught in "traditional" schools.

Plus you can have constant contact, wide-open availability to chat/email with your advisor to bounce ideas! This is valuable!

But the ultimate is contacting investors. You are a pre-qualified company because you took the time to learn about the world of investment funding.

Think about it... if you were an investor, who would you invest in? A company who took the time to learn, or a company that thinks they know it all?

Tip for consumers:
Their holiday schedules are based on the US Calendar, so you need to know thier holidays. Also, thier legal and accounting info is based on the US market/laws.

One of the best things that sets Newchip apart from other accelerators is their commitment to the people and companies they serve.

More than the learning, I have made great friends and met new mentors. This positive relationship renewed our confidence and taught us how we could move forward as a business.

Must-try for those who really want to make it big in business. I've done full circle with Newchip. First, as a student and now, as an investor. They have a massive network that will provide you all the connections you need to get your plans underway. Professional team who know what they're doing. I'm glad they held my hand in my journey towards being a successful entrepreneur.

Up until you join, they'll be super responsive with your emails and promise you the world.
Once they've got your fee, you are no longer their concern.
They used a clueless person for our mastermind sessions, provided little guidance for overseas entrants even though they promised the world.
Promised me a mentor that never emailed and when I emailed them my dissatisfaction and asked for even a partial refund, they quoted a company policy.
Enter at your own risk.

Tip for consumers:
Join at your own risk.

not much at all. It was just a tick-the-box course that had all pre-recorded videos and write-ups.

Hi Eugene,
We couldn't find a startup founder under your name in our system and you didn't return our message through the internal SiteJabber messenger so there's not much we can do here except respond:

All other founders, the reality is that successful CEO's are too busy building to write reviews and when 99% of startups fail; someones going to always fail and blame the accelerator at this scale over multiple years.

We do our best to support every founder's success but sometimes founders come in and fail in the first few weeks of the program even or expect us to be a magic instant pill to turnaround poor decisions prior to joining overnight - we put in a lot of work and we’re going to support you, but you’re the CEO at end of day.

Rather than some random stuff on the internet that anyone can write. Here’s some actually great successful startup CEO's we’ve supported and invested in over last year: https://vimeo.com/showcase/8819086

Newchip helped cement our advocacy for financial literacy across the country. They helped us connect to a significant number of investors. Their approach is unconventional and their advisors are always available. Enrolling in their program has really been worth our time and money, and we would do it again in a heartbeat.

Through Newchip we were introduced to our first investor, which created a snowball effect for our business. They hand selected venture capitalists that were interested in our industry and saved us an incredible amount of time and energy.

Newchip opened our eyes to the wonderful world of cryptocurrency, and we're so excited to be launching what is probably the world's first ever art tech startup with their support.
I like that even though we were on a different time zone we were still able to make the most out of their programs.
Because of Newchip's mediation, we were able to align better with investors.
Newchip delivers what they said they would and that, for us, is the most important thing.
