Founders/CEOs will launch and run companies with support from a team and processes to accelerate growth and validate ideas.
The summary above was generated by AI

Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our model is designed to help you move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way.

We are seeking Founders/CEOs to launch and run future companies. As CEO, you’ll be leading the charge with a CTO, Designer, GTM and validation experts by your side until your own team is hired. You’ll also have the support of recruitment, HR, legal, finance, and more to scale.

Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by:

  • A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A

  • A validation partner with proven playbooks, networks, and the systems to validate, unlock your ICP, ignite your sales pipeline, and beyond

  • The support of our experienced operating team - from business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal and more

  • Executing a winning GTM strategy to get to $50-100K ARR, and the right MVP to ensure early traction

  • A community full of mentors, peers, and leaders

  • $100K worth of business perks

About you:

  • Early-stage operator experience, and expertise in one or more of the following areas: product development, business, or a domain expert

  • The ability to attract, hire and lead world-class teams

  • A demonstrated passion for technology’s ability to change the world

  • A desire to be a venture-backed founder

  • Ability to collaborate in North American time zones 

Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures. If you are currently fundraising your pre-seed or Seed round, please pitch our investment team instead here.
