Founder residency where a small group of founders live and build together for a cohort. Cohort 02 runs in Goa alongside Edge City India, 11 October to 1 November 2026.
Forge is a founder residency where a small group of ambitious founders live and build together, which it describes as a sanctuary for contrarian founders. It operates as Forge Venture Labs, Inc. in Delaware and Forge Residency Private Limited for its India operations.
Each cohort puts founders in one house for the length of the residency and works with them on the product, the story and the next raise, with support continuing after the programme ends. Forge states 24 founders backed across four cohorts at roughly a 1.7 percent acceptance rate, and that all 12 founders from its last cohort raised a combined 6.7 million USD. Cohorts so far are 00 Sparta in Mumbai, 01 Troy in Bengaluru, 02 Alexandria in Goa from 11 October to 1 November 2026, and 03 Ithaca in development. Its stated thesis covers AI and machine learning, hardware, crypto, consumer, space and defense tech, and ideas it considers too early.
Applications for the Goa cohort run through its site, alongside Edge City India for the same three weeks.
