Inforge Consuting: Story, Values and Ethos

Our Story

InForge was founded by a team of strategists who saw two gaps:

Availability of Lack of Academic Knowledge: Ground-breaking academic research that rarely reaches the shop floor.
Expensive cost for SMEs: Smaller firms left behind by big-ticket consultancies.

We set out to forge a new model; one where evidence-led insight, hands-on experience, and SME realities meet in the middle. Today, our advisory board spans leading UK universities, while our consultants bring decades of industry success in tech, manufacturing and FMCG.
