“My alma mater doesn’t know my evolving interests in the last 20 years since I graduated. Neutopia personalises lifelong learning around an alumni’s current needs – think Spotify for learning.
COVID-19 has escalated the need to identify new ways for learners to connect amongst themselves and their institutions and for digital community relationships to thrive.
There is also an increasing interest in lifelong learning. Because of the pandemic, this growing trend has unlocked other opportunities for short-form learning, upskilling or new education, and micro-credentials as a regular and expected path in professional enrichment.
The serviceable market that Neutopia is addressing is over $69B, and by 2026, the opportunity for Neutopia will exceed 1,800 clients and $79M in subscription revenues.”
Jamie Engel, Founder and CEO of Neutopia
Executive Summary
Neutopia is an EduTech SaaS platform designed to serve modern alumni engagement by providing personalised content, facilitating communities, and delivering ongoing learning.

Neutopia increases the lifetime relationship of its client’s end users by increasing brand loyalty through a more enjoyable and relevant user experience. The platform sees alumni as future learners, not former learners.
