about Us
Who We are.
We are Fourward. A premiere talent management, production advisory and investment company. We blaze paths for talented creatives, innovative companies and trusted partners.
Founded in 2018 by Will Ward and a recognized leadership team in TV, film and music management, production and business development, Fourward is dedicated to finding and creating opportunities that make differences in careers and businesses.
Collectively, we have decades of experience developing opportunities where they didn’t previously exist – in Hollywood, Nashville and around the world. What really excites us, however, is putting that experience, insight and global access to work creating new paths for our partners.
