About Us:

Founders Forum Group is a global community and group of businesses supporting entrepreneurs at every stage of their journeys. Its forums unite the world’s most influential founders, investors, corporate and government leaders to tackle era-defining questions in iconic locations across the globe.

Fuelled by the connections and ideas forged at the group’s flagship events, FF Group businesses support the needs of today’s founders via connections, services (Founders Keepers, Founders Law, Founders Makers, Miroma Founders Network, Founders HR, Founders Comms, INDI, 01 Founders, Founders Pledge, Grip, Global Talent Visa), insights & advocacy (Tech Nation Research & Insights), growth programmes (Future Fifty, Upscale, Climate, Libra, Creo), access to capital (Founders Factory, firstminute capital), and newly launched ventures, Founders Health and Founders File. In 2021, the group sold its innovation strategy consulting firm, Founders Intelligence, to global consultancy Accenture.

Since 2019, Founders Forum Group has partnered with Informa Tech to celebrate the strength and diversity of UK tech through London Tech Week.

In 2023, FFG acquired Tech Nation, the UK’s leading growth platform for tech scaleups. Founders Forum Group continues the previously government-funded programmes centred around early-stage and diverse founders, as well as data-driven research into the UK's tech ecosystem. Tech Nation is also proudly the official endorsing body for the UK’s Global Talent Visa on behalf of the Home Office.
