Fortrove Partners

Hi! My name is Joe Forish and I started Fortrove Partners to help technologists deal with challenges of company ownership / equity compensation. From a young age, I learned about maximizing hard work and doing what you do best while working at my father’s auto dealership. I also saw first-hand both the rewards and challenges of running a business. Prior to Fortrove, I honed my expertise investing in public and private equity. I graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a B.S. in Finance and International Business, and from the Harvard Business Analytics Program, with Distinction. In my free time you will find me skiing an evergreen tree-lined run or longboarding when it’s cloudy and glassy. I live in New York City with my wife Linda.

Equip Financial Partners

Hi! Thanks for taking a minute or two to read my bio. I formed Equip Financial Partners after over a decade working in wealth management. I realized there is a common theme in the industry. Many advisors say they work with business owners, but what they really mean is that they're ready to swoop in during the last year or two before the owner is ready to sell so they can capture and manage the assets. I prefer to be along for the ride. Most advisors don't do this because there's "no money to manage." I've built my services to focus on the issues that are unique and important to business owners. I understand the business is "the investment." It's also going to have better returns than just about anything you'll find in the stock market. I help owners: • minimize taxes • create an exit strategy • know their "walk-away number" • focus on building transferable value • protect their business value • protect their family and their wealth However, there's a problem that is often faced that prevents owners from handling these matters--They don't understand their business's finances. They know what happened, but they can't look forward and predict what's coming up. Because of this, I've created Equip CFO which offers fractional CFO services. Between these two entities, we are able to handle just about any financial-related question or issue that arises for business owners. So, whether you're ready to sell, looking to grow, or just want to plan more efficiently, we're here to help. Thanks again for reading! I look forward to connecting.
