Our take
Over the past few years, the move to online and hybrid work has led to a lot of useful and educational content being created by some excellent speakers. However, these videos and podcasts now have nowhere to go, leading to a vast wealth of knowledge sitting idle, unseen and unheard. Newcon was founded in 2021 to create a platform where this content could be promoted, allowing viewers to take advantage of a range of previously unavailable keynote speeches and training materials, and letting creators profit from their work.
Newcon is not alone in hosting streaming content on demand, and faces competition from some major players, most notably Youtube which also hosts similar content. However the Newcon platform provides a far greater range of tools to its creators, allowing them to directly target their content to specific types of users and to monetise their work, and also to build a community around the content they are creating.
Having raised funding in early 2022, Newcon is focusing on building out its founding team. It is also building partnerships with organisations operating in the tech space such as CoinDesk and START Global to provide content to their users. As creators continue to seek ways to monetise their content, and produce more thanks to the growth in business media tools such as Linkedin Video, Newcon is well positioned to build a significant presence in this sector.
