Who We Are

We are the first Open Innovation Tech Space, a space where individuals come together to create their own journey of innovation, collaboration, creativity, and learning. Whether you’re exploring traditional or cutting-edge technologies, you’ll find a supportive community that shares knowledge and experiences.

We Believe

Collaborative environments foster faster learning, increased productivity, and more enjoyable experiences. Youth become lifelong learners when they work and play with parents, peers and other age groups. Our members create intentional spaces where individuals of all ages can fail, learn, and succeed together.

Unleashing Innovation in The triangle


What is an Open Innovation Tech Space?

The Forge exists as members create the space they would like to have. Our favorite saying is, “at the Forge, anyone can start a shared google doc” – launching a new idea into the world and into reality.

At the heart of our ethos lies innovation — from cutting-edge technology to a progressive mentoring/ learning model and advanced community learning. Setting your own pace is easier when you explore the edges.

Technology is the backbone of what we do. In the 21st century, it stands as a modern-day craft, seamlessly woven into nearly every aspect of our daily lives. Being able to navigate the intricacies of the tech world is not just advantageous but essential for embracing the opportunities and challenges of the world around us.

Within The Forge, you discover more than just a physical space; it’s a place with a welcoming community that celebrates the highs and lows of learning new technology and leadership skills. Having a consistent home base is not just comforting; it is truly empowering.
