Our Vision

Born of mutual frustration in hoping the right startup shows up at the right time to solve the right problems in construction, we partnered with OMERS Ventures to launch the Entrepreneur-In-Residence (EIR) program in 2021. Our mission is to empower visionary founders who want to disrupt the built environment and create a better future for all.

We believe that great founders are the linchpin for successful companies. That's why our EIR program is designed to empower visionary entraprenuers with the resources and connections they need to bring their ideas to life and increase their odds of success.

As a start-up foundry, we work tirelessly to forge new solutions in a systematic way. We understand that our ability to predict the future is limited, which is why we want to be in the business of inventing it. By partnering with like-minded founders and venture capital partners, we can revolutionize the built environment, making it more sustainable, efficient, and accessible for all.

If you share this vision, please join us on this journey.
Let's work together to co-create a better future.
