Social equity is at the core of what we do. Many social equity licensees are not only first-time cannabis entrepreneurs, but first-time business owners as well.
No matter what level of experience you have in the industry or in starting or running a business, we are here to help. We are motivated by a desire to make right the injustices of the past, ensure a proper place in the industry for the legacy operators that paved for the way for everyone, and give even social equity licensees that don’t have a ton of funding or industry connections a surer path to success.
How We Support You
WE 💜 NY CAURD LICENSEES
Forte has been highly involved in the social equity-only CAURD program in New York, providing pro bono advice and consulting to many licensees, and appearing at shows and panels.
NO CONNECTIONS, NO PROB
Knowing when to ask other people for help, and who to ask, is a key part of starting your first business. If you’re new to the industry, we can introduce you to the right people in areas like design, construction, and technology.
