Sponsorship Opportunity: Forge Fellowship

Fund the transition of elite military veterans to build a secure, tech-forward talent pipeline that protects your bottom line and drives regional growth.

This is for corporate executives and foundation leaders who must close the massive talent gap in cybersecurity and emerging tech. You provide the financial backing to transition disciplined service members into civilian roles through hands-on training and direct internships. The outcome is a steady supply of vetted, combat-ready professionals who reduce your recruitment costs and deliver proven economic impact, like the 164% return on investment seen by our state partners. This matters because filling your open roles with elite defenders is the only way to safely integrate new tools like artificial intelligence, protect your physical operations from foreign threats, and ensure your community's economy thrives.
