What Network Capital does

Network Capital is a subscription-enabled career acceleration and mentorship platform built on the LearnWorlds learning management system, serving an international community of ambitious students and young professionals. Its core products include 1:1 outcome-based mentorship, CEO Network, cohort-based fellowships (D2C, Personal Branding, EdTech, Writing), office hours, 150+ premium masterclasses created by leaders such as Indra Nooyi and Dr. Robert Shriver, podcasts, newsletters, subgroups, an events program, a curated job board, and a proprietary matching product called the Serendipity Tool. The platform also operates Enterprise Solutions (B2B) covering executive training, culture building, and talent acquisition support, and runs a school-student 1:1 mentoring program.

The company generates revenue through a tiered subscription model: a $250/year Annual Subscription Pro as the core consumer offering, a $5,000/year Outcome-Driven Mentorship plan providing 50 hours of 1:1 mentoring, a $7,500/year Personal Branding Fellowship, and per-cohort D2C Fellowships at $210 (or $5 for existing subscribers). Distribution is community-led, driven by a Facebook Community Accelerator-funded community, a $50 referral bonus for three paid referrals, campus ambassador programs, content marketing via a Substack newsletter, and a decentralised city-leader and faculty network spanning 104+ countries.

Network Capital is headquartered in London with operational roots in India, employs 11-50 people in a remote-first, decentralised structure, and was founded in 2017 by Utkarsh Amitabh (ex-Microsoft, INSEAD MBA, Chevening Fellow at Oxford), who went full-time in 2020. The company was selected for Facebook's Community Accelerator (1% acceptance rate) and received a strategic equity investment from a $1.5B-valuation blockchain unicorn in September 2022, implying a pre-money valuation of $1.5 billion. It is the founding partner for the Government of India's NITI Aayog Atal Innovation Mission, providing distribution to 2 million students and 5,000+ mentors across 10,000+ Atal Tinkering Labs.
