Founder / CEO Opportunity

Forum's Venture Studio brings together ambitious people, brilliant ideas, and capital to build the best B2B SaaS businesses in the world, from 0 to 1. In addition to capital and an idea, we provide founders with access to investor networks, fundraising support, and the resources needed to build transformational companies. Our model is designed to help you move faster, develop better insights, and build companies that have a higher success rate than startups built in any other way.

We're looking for a Founder / CEO to build a real-time network inventory intelligence platform for telecom operators.

Telecom operators are rapidly expanding fiber networks and 5G infrastructure, but their internal network records no longer reflect reality. Most still rely on static GIS maps and legacy databases that can't capture continuous field changes or model how assets interconnect across technologies like GPON, WDM, and IP / MPLS.

This inventory drift causes failed connections, slow outage diagnosis, excessive truck rolls, and millions in wasted OPEX. Automation tools built on inaccurate data only amplify the problem : garbage in, chaos out.

We believe there's an opportunity to build a cloud-based "truth layer" that continuously reconciles what's recorded in OSS / BSS and GIS systems with what actually exists in the fieldcreating the live, trusted network dataset the industry desperately needs.

Forum derisks and accelerates the Founder path by :

  • Providing $250K USD investment, and an end-to-end fundraising playbook and network to raise your Seed and Series A
  • Offering a validation partner with proven frameworks, networks, and systems to identify ICPs and ignite your sales pipeline
  • Providing full operating support across business design, product development, growth, recruitment, legal, and more
  • Offering tactical guidance to execute a winning GTM strategy and build the right MVP to secure early traction
  • Providing a community of mentors, peers, and industry leaders
  • Offering $100K worth of business perks and infrastructure

About you :

  • Domain expertise in telecom infrastructure, OSS / BSS, or network architecture
  • Experience building enterprise or data-intensive software products
  • Strong understanding of field operations and the gap between recorded vs real-world assets
  • Ability to navigate complex technical workflows and partner with both engineers and operators
  • Proven problem-solver with a bias toward building scalable platforms
  • A demonstrated passion for technology's ability to transform legacy infrastructure
  • A desire to be a venture-backed founder
  • Ability to collaborate in North American time zones
  • Please note, this is not an employment opportunity with Forum Ventures. If you are currently fundraising your pre-seed or Seed round, please pitch our investment team instead here.
