We invest in companies transforming housing delivery while generating venture returns.
Our Mission
Our mission is to industrialize housing delivery so we can build more homes at lower cost, improve energy and resource efficiency, and prepare the workforce for the future.
Our Impact Thesis
Innovation capital can multiply impact. Invest in better ways to deliver housing, and the benefits can extend across thousands of projects and the entire value chain, from design and financing to construction and operations.
The economics of housing innovation are shifting, too. Technologies that reduce energy, material use and waste can also lower costs and boost productivity, creating stronger incentives for adoption and enabling impact at scale.
Our Impact Pillars
Housing Affordability & Supply
Build more housing, faster and at lower cost.
Improve productivity, reduce construction costs and timelines, and enable greater housing supply and access.
Sustainable & Resource-Efficient Housing
Build better.
Reduce energy usage, emissions, raw material inputs and waste across the housing lifecycle.
Resilient & Adaptable Housing
Build homes that are ready for change.
Improve durability, adaptability and performance while increasing resilience to climate and other disruptions.
Workforce & Industry Transformation
Build the workforce for a more industrialized housing system.
Support the shift toward advanced manufacturing, automation and digital construction by developing the workforce needed to scale.
Measuring Our Impact
We measure impact at the company and portfolio level, focusing on the outcomes most directly connected to our investment thesis.
Depending on the technology, this may include housing units enabled, energy and emissions reductions, material and waste savings, and job creation and workforce training opportunities
Beyond Capital
Scaling housing innovation takes more than venture capital.
GroundBreak connects the entire housing ecosystem including builders, manufacturers, sub-trades, developers, governments, unions, researchers and housing organizations required to move technologies from concept to deployment.
