Begun as my family’s investment vehicle after my first successful exit; FORBventures evolved into a VC/Incubator with a long history of helping entrepreneurs and small companies turn great ideas into great businesses across a wide variety of industries. FORB uses a highly disciplined methodology to transform innovative ideas into great businesses. We do not invest passively; we invest only when we are able to take a senior and hands-on leadership role during the formative stage. For each venture, FORB assembles a unique group of operating executives, board members, and investors who create, manage and fund the vision and strategy for incubating, launching and growing the business.

The goal of Bow Wow Labs is to create “masterful” products that make life easier for dogs and their owners, offer care advice and training tips that build lasting bonds, and provide convenient services.
