BuiltUp Ventures specializes in early-stage innovative Property Technology (Proptech) and Construction Technology (Contech) startups.
BuiltUp Ventures is a seed investment fund that specializes in early-stage, innovative, Israeli Proptech and Contech startup companies. Our 360-degree business model addresses every stage of the Corporate Real Estate (CRE) Proptech and Contech process.
BuiltUp Ventures goes beyond investing. With our vast resources in go-to-market strategy, and a strong U.S.-based business development team, we accelerate our portfolio companies’ value, which also benefits our investors.
Our business relationships foster partnerships, integrations, professional services, business development initiatives, and strategic alliances. These can improve the position of our portfolio companies for acquiring Round A investments, and may remove the need for additional seed funding.
Our partnership with leading Israeli IP firm Cohn, de Vries, Stadler & Co., provides added value to our portfolio companies.
Besadno Investment Group, the general partner of the Fund, has extensive experience in the seed to Round A funding arena. This provides BuiltUp Ventures with access to talent in Israel’s high-tech startup ecosystem at the university, accelerator, and incubator levels.
