Free State Forge supports startups tackling complex problems at scale in software.

What kinds of companies do we support? Good ones… We’re angel investors, not VCs. We’re not limited by a fund thesis, and we don’t spray and pray. We’re looking to be inspired by resilient people doing important things.
