HometeamVC

We invest in founders bringing breakthrough technology to one of the world’s largest, but least innovative, industries: construction + housing.

Last week after our AGM, we gathered LPs, founders & housing thinkers for dinner in SF.

We discussed one of the biggest tensions in the space:
How do we build faster & cheaper without sacrificing sustainability?

Grateful for the Hometeam community. Big goals, real progress!

@nextgreatarch @SenatorBrisport .@laughsee is a social entrepreneur and venture capitalist. In 2021, Lafci launched @HometeamVC, a venture capital fund investing in startups focused on making construction more affordable and sustainable, aiming to close the housing gap through technological innovation

We agree!

[Garry Tan @garrytan]

Construction is the latest adopter industry

But we need more housing than ever

We are proud to say we are long term backers of real estate tech like @1build_inc @teamcurri @MyAbodu @culdesac so we can have a roof over every person someday

Housing is a human right

Though construction accounts for 13% of the world’s GDP and employs hundreds of millions, productivity has only grown 1% in the past 2 decades. Buildots is one #startup aiming to change that - and we know there are many others! [via ⁦@TechCrunch⁩] https://t.co/CmSSX1FtqP

We need bold and broad action to safeguard the planet our children will live on.

We're big fans of the Miami tech scene, so seeing @sidewalklabs working in Wynwood is exciting! We know it will take the entire #construction ecosystem — from developers to tech giants to disruptive startups — to bring the industry forward.

Things founders should be judged on:

✅ Idea
✅ Execution
✅ Integrity

Anything else is exclusionary & gatekeeping.

The latest EU Construction Tech report from @Siftedeu shows that #construction accounts for 9% of the EU’s GDP and just crossed the $10bn mark(!) The biggest challenges the industry reported are productivity, trash and costs.

Exciting new technologies are addressing every facet of the #construction lifecycle:
