The software builds on many well-established tools, methods, and best practices but makes them interactive, adaptable, and interoperable. It combines aspects of project management, analytics, financial, and collaboration software, all integrated and optimized for managing innovation, strategy, and new business growth at the project, group, or company-wide portfolio level. Before founding BRI, we spent several decades developing new businesses within a large Fortune 500 technology company. We learned the hard way what works, what doesn't, and most importantly, why the things that don't work are likely to fail. We have many years of experience as Intrapreneurs and as leaders of new business growth portfolios. We tried many software tools and services along the way, but they either focused too heavily on ideation and idea management or were overly generalized tools for collaboration or process management. We developed Growth Forge to address the gaps we saw in the market. \* Help users clearly articulate complete and self-consistent strategy options \* Robust financial and risk modeling and analysis that captures uncertainty to support data-driven decision making \* Workflow management aligned to the iterative, agile nature of new business exploration \& market-based validation \* Supports managing projects in the context of a “portfolio” strategy, not just a collection of discrete projects Managing new business growth and innovation is challenging, even in the best environments. The Growth Forge software includes extensive help and a curated library of 3rd party resources materials. It can also be bundled with consulting services from BRI to help ensure your environment is set up for success before you make the investment in the software to accelerate and scale your capabilities. > > Verdict: Rated **4.7/5** by 9 users.

Instead of trying to spit out a polished “plan,” it actually helps you think. It pushes you to be clear about your assumptions, the choices you’re making, and what would have to be true for an idea to work. That alone is incredibly valuable - and honestly where most teams struggle. The tools are practical and well thought out. You can move from early ideas to real experiments, while keeping track of what you’re learning along the way. I also appreciated how it handles uncertainty - through modeling and scenarios - so you’re guided to make informed bets. What I found most useful is that it acts like a living dashboard for innovation. It connects strategy, metrics, and execution in one place, so you can actually see progress and make decisions as things evolve. > > **Cons**: While the Growth Forge software suite is well organized and has an intuitive interface, the sheen number of tools can be a bit overwhelming for new users. > > Ultimately, Growth Forge reinforces a critical truth: strategy is a set of choices under uncertainty that must be continuously tested and refined. If you’re serious about innovation and not just checking the box, it’s an extremely powerful toolset. ----- ### "Top software for Innovation Product and Portfolio management" — 5.0/5 > **Manoj** | *4 March 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great software for structured approach to innovation product and portfolio management. Good to hear more AI features are on the way. > > **Cons**: Navigation and help can be made easier for better experience > > Liked that it is one stop shop for product management ----- ### "Great 1-stop business planning and business development tool" — 4.0/5 > **Michael** | *22 July 2022* | Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Educational aspect that enables users to learn while doing. > > **Cons**: Navigating sections and understanding how they are interconnected. > > Great learning experience and now an integral component of our strategic pipeline. ----- ### "Making Innovation Practical" — 5.0/5 > **Shawn** | *14 July 2022* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The first time I saw Growth Forge I was eager to get to work with it. Having struggled to find something that would help me to do incubation work effectively, I was enthused that the creators had put this together for use for someone like me who was not trained in business but was tasked with model incubation. I think that the way in which the materials are laid out to help guide someone through the design of a real project are better than many of the other innovation sets that have been put out before. This was the most practical tool that I have ever found to support someone who is doing product development. > > **Cons**: As a new technology, it has a few bugs here and there, but I found the developers to be open to feedback and able to make immediate changes. However, these bugs were few and far between, so it's been a non-issue mostly for the completion of my work. > > I think the main challenge we face is being practical with our ideas. I work in an environment where people like shiny objects. I also think that people believe innovation is magic created by one very creative person. This tool has been critical to helping people understand the real work that needs to be done in innovation, and it has been helpful on more one occasion to support arguments I'm trying to make regarding either the need to double down on an idea or to let something go. ----- ### "Growth Forge excellent Business Innovation Product platform" — 4.0/5 > **thomas** | *30 October 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Outstanding collection and use of business tools ranging from strategic to financial modeling of the business venture. In addition, the dashboard and "what if" capabilities allow for the user/team to model expected outcome and identification of project/product market issues that can both be tested (before major investment) and increase visibility to the project on how to strategically pivot for maximum impact. > > **Cons**: A bit challenging to learn. Requires domain knowledge for business innovation and financial modeling for optimum success. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/360007/growth-forge?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/360007/growth-forge) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
