Forward Global designs and delivers services and technologies to manage economic, digital and information risks. By helping global leaders, businessess and institutions understand, navigate, and address evolving challenges, we empower them to seize opportunities, make informed strategic decisions, and build trust – all while contributing to a more resilient world. The group supports our clients at a national and international level: • in managing critical issues (such as negotiations, litigation and disputes, restructuring, CSR compliance) • during growth operations (including M&A, international expansion, major projects, governance changes) • when strategic positions need to be defined (communications, public affairs, digital, etc.) • in cyber risk management and when responding to attacks targeting any and all mission-critical systems • in responding to crises (fraud, counterfeiting, piracy, data leaks) Forward Global is a socially engaging company – a model for shareholder value creation with a focus on fostering positive change and driving social impact. In 2022, Forward Global and its subsidaries adopted the framework of a Mission-led company ("Société à Mission") and in 2024 Forward Global became a B Certified Corporation.
