Our take
Construction is one of the world's biggest industries, and one of the least digitized. Built is setting out to change this by offering construction companies a cloud-based finance platform.
Built was founded in 2014, and its solutions improve the flow of capital between all stakeholders in the construction ecosystem, including contractors and property developers. Further funding has pushed Built's valuation up to $1 billion, which is testament to industry confidence in its product.
More and more fintechs are looking to the construction industry, eager to exploit the gap in the market. However, Built has already established itself as a market leader, and its unicorn valuation has helped set it apart.
