Who are the key investors at Forwards Fund?

What is Forwards Fund?

What they say:

Forwards Fund is a private angel investor network that builds early-stage deep tech startups solving the hardest problems in critical infrastructure sectors: energy, mining, agriculture, manufacturing, logistics, and defense.

What we look for: We invest in the future of energy, mining, agriculture, manufacturing, logistics, and defense. We see a massive underrepresentation of deep tech startups in the American venture ecosystem, and we are committed to changing that. We seek to catalyze the next generation of transformative, meaningful, and high-impact companies that will define the 21st century. We are focused on reviving the golden age of American manufacturing: onshore, American-made, and cutting-edge.

How we help: Forwards Fund specializes in providing Advisory Board services including helping founders raise funding rounds, develop products and branding, manage PR and marketing, acquire top talent, and more. We also connect early-stage deep tech startups with our private angel investor network and VC firm contacts to raise subsequent funding. Our angels provide private, small-scale investments as “first checks” to select visionary founders aligning with our core values and mission.
