Our take
We are currently facing a global housing crisis, with over 1B people living without adequate shelter. ICON is a 3D powered construction company that is setting out to redesign the homebuilding industry.
ICON develops advanced construction technologies by using 3D printing robotics, software and advanced materials. Once operating a waitlist for home reservations, the ompany now offers homes for sale in Texas. Since its 2017 launch, ICON has raised significant funding, reflecting strong interesting its innovative approach to homebuilding.
The sheer scale of what can be done with ICON’s technology is extraordinary, so much so the company has a contract with NASA to develop systems to build on the Moon and Mars. It also partners with large scale residential communities, not-for-profit housing, and works on special projects like rocket landing pads. These are undoubtedly exciting times for ICON and it’ll be very interesting to see what comes next for the company.
