About Forum Ventures

Forum Ventures is a founder-first AI venture studio, accelerator, and pre-seed fund for B2B startups. Founded 2014. 550+ portfolio companies. $1B+ in follow-on funding raised.

About the role

Maybe you've underwritten equipment finance or asset-backed lending and felt the lag between asset reality and collateral marks. Maybe you've built IoT, telemetry, or appraisal products that give lenders and operators a live view of asset condition. That's who we build with. A $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your seed and Series A

  • Dynamic collateral valuation for lenders and insurers using live IoT and performance signals
  • Usage-based financing and insurance tied to actual asset utilization
  • and more!
