Top Information Technology Startups in 2026

We’re building a collaborative cloud for teams to work in the physical world. Here’s the master plan: 1. Build a world-class Engineering, Production, and Sales organizations. 2. Create a product that Gives Operators Superpowers. 3. Take a big swing at the giants of Enterprise Software Our cloud platform is an orchestration-layer the sits on top of a company's disparate resources. We integrate with 3rd party-services like ERPs, PLMs as well as public and private cloud services (databases, APIs, warehouses) to "operationalize" your data. What this means for team is not more digging through emails, downloading spreadsheets, trying to figure out what PO matches what Invoice, and which shipments are where. Recently, we closed a $3.5M seed round led by Contrary Capital, 47th Street Partners, Base Case Capital, and others. We’re just getting started.

Scientific progress in medicine is accelerating, but getting breakthroughs to patients remains slow and unreliable. Bringing a new drug to market takes 10 to 15 years and costs $2.6 billion on average. Even after FDA approval, too many eligible patients never receive treatment – caught in a system that wasn't built for the complexity of modern medicine. Most promising drugs never make it to market, and those that do reach only a fraction of the patients who could benefit. Forus is embedded into physician workflows, automating all steps between a clinical decision and a patient starting treatment — insurance authorization, financial assistance, and fulfillment routing — across every drug, payer, and pharmacy in the country, free for doctors and patients. Because we play an unprecedented role in moving prescriptions through the system, we provide life sciences companies unmatched insight into how medicines perform — enabling them to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions. Our number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us unlock capacity and drive growth. We move fast and need to move faster.
