Community
The Forge Community is the largest, non-commercial, peer-to-peer network of single family offices. We've grown organically over the last ten years, extending invitations to individuals and like-minded peer groups to build a diverse and engaged community.
Our Journey
In 2011, Forge was FORGE, an initiative started at Fidelity Institutional, which stood for Family Office Regional Group Executives. Things have changed a little since then, but the spirit of collaboration and desire for connection remains. Today, the Forge Community is a startup backed and empowered by Fidelity Labs, the fintech incubator of Fidelity Investments, focused on building new businesses to better serve customers and enter new markets. With the continued support of Fidelity Labs, Forge will continue to be an engine of innovation for the single family office industry.
