Urban Challenge: Climate Change
Peak temperatures, droughts and heavier rainfall and storms - an increasing risk for cities and urban infrastructure. The challenge at hand is to build climate resilient cities that are able to face the global climate change and its implications.
Urban Challenge: Density
In Europe 3,050 people per square km are living in urban areas. Cities are already at the verge of collapse while the density is expected to increase further. Density becomes a core challenge in developing cities of the future while keeping them affordable.
Urban Challenge: Circularity
Currently linear supply chains (make, waste, dispose) are pushing cities to its limits. Circularity means to redesign the flow of resources such as building materials, water, food and energy to create more efficient supply chains and increase the output per resource used significantly.
Urban Challenge: Livability
Ensuring equal access to fundamental services such as food, education, health care and a safe & stable built- and natural environment remains a key challenge. Given the demographic changes in European societies, this challenge will become increasingly pressing.

Your networking superpower.
Since joining us at Day 1, our work with 2bX has been extremely valuable not only to the founders team but the whole company’s growth. We highly value the open, transparent way of communication and support in strategic decisions whenever required.
2bX is hands-on, trustworthy and supportive at all times. At Predium we really appreciate the open communication and the support on strategic and operational topics while 2bX never forgets to remind us to take care of our mental health.
In 2bX, we immediately saw the courage to change things, to think and to tackle things differently in our first conversation. That impressed us and showed us that 2bX is not a standard VC. We appreciate the fast, open and direct communication, which has built up a very strong relationship of trust.
From the first time we met, we had a very positive, energetic and trusting way of collaboration. The entire 2bX team represents a high level of expertise, enthusiasm and a remarkably supportive mindset.
From day one we were fully aligned on our mission to change the status-quo of real estate brokerage. The team always supported us in all matters and helped us grow above and beyond!
2bX has been an extremely valuable partner in building Comgy – well beyond the financial investment. I highly appreciate the support in fundraising, helping to prepare the company for follow up investments, as well as the qualified input on strategic and corporate finance aspects of the business.
As a founder, working with Mark and his team is a unique experience: Extraordinary deep technical and functional expertise combined with a warm-hearted, trustworthy and genuine communication style creates an atmosphere of always going all in for the best of the company – together, and on eye level.
At Construyo we are proud of a culture based on transparency and care. We are happy that those values are also an integral part of the collaboration between the 2bX team and founders.
Working with 2bX was valuable as they not only bring a good network in the Real Estate space, but also combine the VC perspective to fast scaling companies.
Working with 2bx has been a blast from the first time we met. They are professionals and have been extremely supportive in all sorts of areas of the business, and are also a delight on a personal level – VC done right!
