The Financial Times has launched a new venture arm to invest in high-growth media and tech companies, executives told Axios, and FT Ventures' first investment is in Charter, a future-of-work media startup.
Why it matters: The separate investment arm lets the FT explore strategic investments in smaller, high-growth startups that wouldn't make sense for the broader FT Group.
Catch up quick: The FT Group is a subsidiary of the Japanese holding company Nikkei and includes the Financial Times, a group of specialized media and data services companies, and a few joint ventures.
