On January 6, 2025, Forged Operations was accepted into the Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub, a program designed to give early-stage technology companies access to the tools, infrastructure, and networks they need to build and scale.

As part of the program, Forged Operations gains access to Microsoft Azure cloud credits, GitHub Enterprise, Microsoft 365, and a suite of developer tools, resources that directly support the continued development of our AI-native quality management platform for the nuclear industry.

"Being part of the Microsoft for Startups program validates the infrastructure approach we've taken from day one," said Kyle George, CEO of Forged Operations. "Nuclear quality infrastructure needs to be enterprise-grade and auditable. Azure gives us the reliability and compliance tooling that our customers expect."

Forged Operations is building the operating system for nuclear quality, connecting supplier qualification, document control, NCRs, inspection and test plans, training records, and audit readiness in a single AI-native platform built around NQA-1, CSA N299, CSA N286, and 10 CFR 50 Appendix B.
