Your work will help shape the future of innovation by surfacing high-potential ventures that align with Forum’s investment thesis and drive meaningful returns.
• • You will be responsible for sourcing high-quality deal flow through proactive outreach, founder referrals, community engagement, and the use of data-driven tools; managing the full lifecycle of inbound opportunities from initial screening through due diligence to investment recommendation; cultivating authentic relationships with founders, operators, and ecosystem stakeholders by representing Forum at events, hosting founder coffees, and sharing insights publicly; supporting internal investment thesis development via market mapping, trend analysis, and white-space identification; and collaborating closely with Platform and Accelerator teams to ensure portfolio companies receive exceptional post-investment support.
