The group consists of analysts, CFA's, brokers, and private investors. Our investors have decades of experience working in the Financial District in Boston. Most have specialized training in such fields as chemical engineering, electrical engineering, geology, economics, and mathematics. We are among the most experienced equity investors in Boston. Annually, we meet with 300 to 400 small cap companies in such areas as natural resources, biotech, technology, and special situations. Our members are interested in investment opportunities in established as well as "orphaned" companies whose existence has been neglected by analysts and investors for various reasons. Newton Investors can be especially important for a company with a market capitalization insufficient to meet minimums required by investment funds.
