What is the UpForge Global Registry?

The UpForge Global Registry is the world's open, independent, verified database of startups. Every approved startup receives a unique UFRN (UpForge Registry Number) — a permanent proof of existence.

UFRN stands for UpForge Registry Number — a unique, permanent startup ID in the format UF-YYYY-IND-XXXXX. It is assigned to every approved startup and serves as a third-party verified proof of existence shareable on LinkedIn, websites, and investor decks.

How do I get listed on UpForge?

Submit your startup at upforge.in/submit. After manual review (3-5 days), approved startups receive a permanent registry URL and their UFRN via email.
