Innovators in housing construction and delivery face unique hurdles on the path to growth, including a complex regulatory landscape and financing challenges. But the worsening housing crisis and intensifying climate impacts make new approaches more important than ever. We created the Builders Lab to support visionary leaders in architecture, engineering, construction and hardware as they work to advance their innovations and change the housing landscape for the better. Today, we're thrilled to announce the selection of our first Builders Lab cohort, made up of six companies from across the United States: B.Public Prefab , Cloud Apartments, Cycle Retrotech, Hydronic Shell Technologies, MODSpdx, and Villa. They bring a diverse array of approaches, including panelized and volumetric manufacturing and strategies to scale deep energy retrofits, workforce development, and demand aggregation. We're grateful for support from strategic partners Eden Housing, Inc., Hilti Group, SCB, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), and Suffolk Construction, and funding from Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and JPMorganChase.
