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!

.@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!
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] techcrunch.com/2021/08/04/bu…
