The BuiltUp Ventures investment fund will focus on investments in a variety of real estate technologies

The BuiltUp Ventures investment fund will focus on investments in a variety of real estate technologies, connecting startup entrepreneurs to New York’s Jewish Orthodox community, which has extensive experience in the real estate industry.

The fund will be launched at this week's Mipim PropTech conference in New York during which BuiltUp Ventures will present its portfolio companies.

The US-Israeli investment group, Besadno Investments, establishes its unique BuiltUp Venture fund by focusing on seed investments exclusively in the areas of Property Tech (including construction, retail and logistics). 

The fund is currently preparing to raise $10 million in initial funding and will complete $50 million in funding in 2020.The fund will be launched as part of the leading conference in this area - Mipim PropTech, held this week in New York City (https://nyc.mipim-proptech.com/en.html). At the conference, the fund will present its portfolio companies.

The Besadno group, founded by Eliezer (Eli) Gross, is an Israeli-American investment group that specializes in investments in start-ups, commercial, high-tech and real estate companies in Israel and globally.

Oded Eliashiv, Founder and Partner of BuiltUp ventures, is spearheading a tried and tested model that the group has been providing to portfolio companies for many years. Mr. Eliashiv now is looking to apply this model to the real estate industry.
Mr. Eliashiv says: “We have seen that our portfolio companies are accelerating at a rapid pace and we have decided to continue investing in real estate technologies through a dedicated fund. Our core advantage is reflected in several aspects: Our US investors and partners live and breathe real estate and can help entrepreneurs in penetrating the US market by applying our process, modeling the investments and services we have developed that have worked for the benefit of the companies. The years of experience we possess in seed investment (which takes place at BSeed, which is part of the Besadno group) separates the BuiltUp Fund from the pack, and is different and unique from other funds and will create and accelerate value for our entrepreneurs."
