Gen7 Investments is an investment division of Forum Communications, media company controlled by the Marcil family of North Dakota. Gen7 serves as a platform for the Marcil family to diversify their interests away from publishing. Based in Fargo, N.D., Gen7 is built on over a century of experience in creating value for businesses and investors. Forum Communications began its rapid growth in 1926 with the purchase of a 48-page printing press, twice the size of the original press. In 1935, The Forum bought minority ownership of WDAY radio, purchasing the remainder of the station in 1958, and from 1980-2006, The Forum added 35 newspapers to span four states. The company formed Gen7 Investments as it prioritized efforts to connect with new generations and diversify its portfolio. Today, Gen 7 manages and elevates a portfolio featuring consumer goods, media companies, and brand agencies.
