• October 30, 2023 – Thrive’s CEO Thomas Forest Farb-Horch was featured in Forbes for his insights on transitioning a company beyond 50 employees. His role in establishing 18 companies, including 7 unicorns, is evident in his statement for the article: “As a company scales, the majority of employees inevitably have narrower responsibilities and increasingly work with and through others. To reduce the impact on self-esteem and frustration levels, prepare employees far in advance—starting even during the hiring process—to understand that success, unlike in “corporations,” also means narrower responsibilities as they become increasingly important links in the chain.” -Thomas Farb-Horch, Thrive Bioscience, Inc.
