PropTech Angel Group is the world's largest group of investors, entrepreneurs, and tech nerds like me who invest in early stage tech companies EXCLUSIVELY in the PropTech space. We DO NOT lead rounds, but we are almost 100% from the industry and try to be strategic to our portfolio companies. This group has very low minimums and dues because we are mostly young, influential members of the CRE and Tech communities who are betting on the intersection of the two industries. Membership is invitation only. To learn more, send me a note at MKnight@blkhwk.com

ICON is a construction technologies company dedicated to revolutionizing homebuilding. Through their proprietary 3D printing technology and cutting-edge materials, ICON provides sustainable solutions to a number of our world’s most pressing issues, including the pandemic of homelessness in the developing world, the difficulty of constructing off-planet space habitats, and the exorbitant cost of customized housing. ICON has recently built the first permitted, 3D-printed home in America in partnership with the non-profit New Story, and is working with them to create a mobile printer for the developing world that has the ability to print a single story, 600-800 square foot home in under 24 hours for less than $4000. As a part of that effort, ICON has developed cutting-edge materials tested to the most recognized standards of safety, comfort and resiliency and is designed to function with nearly zero waste production methods and work under unpredictable constraints (limited water, power, and labor infrastructure) to tackle housing shortages.
