Fifth Wall

Creating impact at scale for the world's largest and most influential corporations. Real world technology Fifth Wall is the largest venture capital firm focused on technology for the global real estate industry. We invest in technology companies tackling some of the most pressing, real world problems, be it climate change, aging buildings and infrastructure, inaccessible housing markets, unreliable supply chains, or the future of work, to name a few. Our platform is designed to technologize the spaces around us in order to optimize for a better, more sustainable future. Whether that means making buildings smarter, safer, more energy efficient, or all of the above, the outcome is the same – we fund cutting edge technology companies that are committed to future-proofing the spaces in which we live, work, and play. Flywheel Effect Fifth Wall is backed by a global mix of more than 100 strategic limited partners (LPs) from more than 15 countries, including BNP Paribas Real Estate, British Land, CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield, Hilton, Host Hotels & Resorts, Kimco Realty Corporation, Lennar, Lowe's Home Improvement, Marriott International, MetLife Investment Management, MGM Resorts, Related Companies, Starwood Capital, Toll Brothers, and others. Real estate corporations invest in Fifth Wall not only for financial returns, but also for the strategic value that access to game-changing technology companies provides. As a result, Fifth Wall has structured partnerships, distribution deals, and contracts that have rapidly accelerated the growth of our portfolio companies. By intermediating these two groups, our corporate LPs gain access to innovation and our portfolio companies gain access to distribution. Mission Critical Fifth Wall has always invested at the intersection of real estate and innovation, and we believe that the next frontier for the industry is its collision with climate technology. Real estate is the largest contributor to climate change, consuming 40% of the world’s energy and producing 30%-40% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Yet historically, the industry has put very little capital towards technology solutions to mitigate its contributions. A staggering $18 trillion investment is required over the next decade to get the real estate industry to net-zero. Just as with real estate technology, our relationships with the real estate industry are the distinguishing quality that compels us to champion this fight. Decarbonizing real estate is one of the most important ethical imperatives and economic opportunities of our lifetime and Fifth Wall’s consortium model can play a dramatic role in convening the industry’s largest players to fund the climate technology solutions critical to its future.

Spero Ventures

“Spero” is Latin for hope. We help founders build a hopeful future. We’re a team of former startup founders, operators, and investors from landmark companies including eBay and Tesla. We invest in determined founders building mission-driven technology companies in three focus areas: wellbeing; sustainability; learning, work, and play. We prefer to lead or co-lead a $3-$10M round (late seed or Series A). Our typical check is $2-$4M, and we reserve capital for follow-on. We are conviction-based investors who play the long game. How We Work With YouWe have the conviction to lead and price your round. We participate in follow-on funding and help with subsequent fundraising. Our concentrated portfolio approach allows us to engage deeply with our founders. We’re supportive throughout the life of a company. Every one of our founders has full access to the entire Spero Ventures team. We know some ideas take time to catch on, so we offer patient capital. We are calm and steady partners in uncertain times. We help companies scale to serve billions of customers. We’ve done this as operators and founders, and as advisors and board members. We connect our companies to a network of founders, advisors, coaches, domain experts, and executive talent. We build community by bringing founders and leaders together through our CEO Summits, Product Leader Summits, founder breakfasts, workshops and thought-provoking events. We offer expert-led workshops that help founders with brand/storytelling, sales/go-to-market, consumer growth, and fundraising. Our focus Wellbeing Agency over physical and mental health People deserve to be in control of their own physical and mental health. For that, they need new kinds of information and access to care. What devices, apps, tools and services will help people live longer, healthier, more vibrant lives? How can genomics help us better understand our world and ourselves, and contribute to new solutions? Companies that answer these questions will make life worth living. Sustainability Protecting and preserving our planet Life is worth living on a healthy planet. But many of the largest systems we rely on - water, food, energy, transportation, product production and waste - were designed in a way that’s unsustainable and detrimental to our personal and planetary health. The economic, social, and health impacts of climate change and industrial pollution are growing too large to ignore: unprecedented droughts, fires and floods have disrupted millions of lives and result in billions of dollars of loss each year. How can we develop safer, more efficient systems? What can we do to improve power grids, recycling, environmental monitoring and disaster analytics? We invest in sustainability with conviction. Learning, Work, and Play Freedom in work and life Savoring relationships, art, joy, and laughter makes life worth living. Today, the way we do these things is changing. We can now learn, work, and play in hybrid ways that suit individual needs. This means self-directed learners need access to education and job preparation. Likewise, self-directed workforces need freedom, flexibility, and the ability to manage their goals. How can we provide better access to rewarding, satisfying work? What tools and support systems do people need to thrive? We invest in powerful visions for the future of learning, work, and play.
