Reforge has attracted the most knowledgeable and experienced network of experts solving critical challenges facing technology companies. From Reforge Partners to brand new members, everyone moves faster and accomplishes more when we support one another and share what we know.

“Reforge allowed me to brainstorm ideas with companies from all over the world; both within my organization’s industry and outside. I was immediately able to apply the knowledge learned into my daily responsibilities and I continue to lean on the community as a resource.”

Jay Mohammad, Subscriptions Manager, Zoom

“Reforge was the most valuable educational experience of my life. It’s like a mini MBA that I’ll use for the rest of my career.”

“The materials and interviews are uniformly excellent. They are filled with relevant, practical, and actionable guidance. I’ve found myself referring to them again and again. You just can’t get this depth and quality of training anywhere else.”

“Reforge was a fantastic program for me. As a new member on Segment's Growth team, this provided a crucial impact on my day-to-day work — I was able to contribute ideas at work around experimentation frameworks, growth models and across elements of the marketing funnel. I've met inspiring growth leaders and a community of people that I will definitely keep in touch within coming years.”

Membership Criteria

Reforge is a worldwide community of experienced product management, marketing, engineering, and other tech professionals solving meaningful problems and pushing the frontiers of the tech industry. Together, we are creating the world's most powerful platform for how to lead and grow tech companies.

What we look for in potential members

Digital Product Related Role: Because our community is built around common problems related to growing tech companies, we prioritize applicants from the functions most likely to be actively working on those problems today. This includes Product Management, Marketing, Engineering, Design, Analytics, Strategic Finance, and other roles.

Relevant Company: Reforge helps unlock extraordinary growth for existing tech companies. We prioritize applicants in digital businesses that are post product-market fit. While we hope to expand our Knowledge Platform in the future, we do not currently serve early-stage start-ups and non-digital business models.

Contributors with Strong Initiative: Reforge is first and foremost a community of contributors, but you don't have to be an expert to join. We prefer active participants who ask questions, engage with others, offer ideas, and share insights. We require that new members have a couple years of relevant experience because we don't typically cover the basics.
