Forest launched out of Caltech with support from former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Griffin Catalyst, the philanthropic organization of Citadel CEO Kenneth C. Griffin, the Riley & Susan Bechtel Foundation, and Amaranth Foundation founder James Fickel. Concurrent with its launch in October 2023, Forest partnered with Butterfly Network (NYSE:BFLY), a digital health company developing semiconductor-based ultrasound technology.
