About FORGE

FORGE is a 501(c)3 nonprofit on a mission to help startups with physical products navigate the journey from prototype to commercialization and impact at scale.

 

THE PROBLEM

Startups making physical products are solving some of the world’s toughest problems, but face added roadblocks to scale. High early production costs and burn rate make right choices in design, supply, and manufacturing crucial to runway and success - yet many innovators have gaps in the specific connections and expertise needed to support the scaling process.

 

OUR SOLUTION

FORGE addresses crucial gaps and accelerates path to market for these startups by making right-fit introductions to industry expertise, combined with the training and support needed to ensure readiness for the connections to be productive.
