Universities and research institutions
Turn research into market impact. Technology scouting, IP commercialisation, spin-outs and student founder programmes.
Partner with Forge
Build the next generation with us.
Forge works with organisations that want a hand in creating new technology companies: through research, talent, technology, sponsorship and capital.
Ways to partner
Five ways in.
Corporates
Turn shelved technology into commercial opportunity. Venture challenges, R&D commercialisation and access to emerging talent.
Banks, telcos and technology companies
Sponsor a hackathon track or a cohort, and get early access to the builders and ventures coming through.
Investors
See ventures before they are obvious. Demo Day, co-investment and follow-on introductions.
Mentors and operators
Hold office hours, judge the hackathon or join a venture as an operator. Bring a skill, not a speech.
Sponsoring the hackathon
Tracks and the Lagos final are open for sponsors.
Get your brand in front of the builders before anyone else does.
