Investment Thesis

Shadow Ventures invests in ambitious founders solving the most difficult problems in Construction and Real Estate, focusing on the $300 trillion built world asset class. They believe that despite the massive scale and annual spend in real estate and construction, these sectors have been overlooked for technological advancements. Their approach combines deep technical expertise with entrepreneurial experience, positioning themselves as a firm of operators who actively engage in building rather than passive capital deployment.

What Sets Them Apart

Strategic LP network providing 'undeniable edge': $100BN+ Combined Real Estate Assets Under Management, $20BN+ Annual Construction and Building Products Revenue, 10,000+ Design and Engineering Professionals
Non-traditional VC model: team of proven entrepreneurs who still write code, obsess over datasets, and maintain hands-on operating experience
Deep technical expertise with CTO as General Partner and founding team of 'unapologetic technology nerds'
Focus on 'boldest ideas' and frontier technology in overlooked industries
Active thought leadership with published research reports on ConTech, PropTech, and built world innovation
