About FG

Facilitated Growth is a management consulting firm and private investment group providing advisory services and access to financing opportunities for early-stage through lower-middle market companies.

In parallel, FG founded its investment arm to provide support to these companies through bridge financing and capitalize on intrinsic value in the early stages.
