Operational turnaround and transformation for life science and deep tech
Life sciences, post-revenue
The challenge:
An investor brought Reforge Global in after the company's cash position became critical.
The method:
Within six weeks, from a cold start, costs were cut 85 percent without pausing the business. Technical sales of consumables and instruments continued through the transition. New partnerships were developed to support growth, and the sales and technical support functions were strengthened and expanded.
The results:
Runway extended from one month to more than two years. Cash burn held at zero for eighteen consecutive months, giving the company the time it needed to stabilize and grow.

Life sciences, pre-revenue
The challenge:
Reforge Global was brought in with the company's runway nearly exhausted and no clear path to a raise. The team needed a sharper focus, without pausing product development.
The method:
The company was rebuilt to be protocol-focused, with deep customer integration built into the model from the ground up. Customers were brought in to co-build the technology, creating a capital-efficient path to development. A new founding scientist was recruited entirely without outside search support.
The results:
Runway was extended by nine months. The board responded well to the Founder Customer model as a capital-efficient way to develop the technology, and the company is now preparing to raise.
