Fifth Wall

Fifth Wall is a prominent asset manager that operates at the intersection of real estate and technology, often credited with defining PropTech as an investment category. The firm partners with influential investors and entrepreneurs within the Built World, aiming to scale breakthrough technologies that enhance the efficiency and resilience of the physical world. They manage capital for tech-forward owner-operators, addressing disruptive trends such as climate change, artificial intelligence, and asset obsolescence within the real estate industry.

Founded in 2016 by Brendan F. Wallace and Brad Greiwe, Fifth Wall was established to bridge the gap between the traditional real estate sector and emerging technological innovations. The firm's name alludes to the 'fifth wall' of technology it provides, complementing the four physical walls of a building. They have built a unique platform that connects over 110 strategic limited partners, including many of the largest real estate owner-operators across more than 20 countries, with a portfolio of over 150 category-leading startups.

Fifth Wall's portfolio includes notable companies such as Industrious, a co-working space provider acquired by CBRE (one of Fifth Wall's LPs), and ServiceTitan, which recently priced its IPO. The firm also focuses on climate technology, having launched a dedicated Climate Tech Fund to invest in solutions that decarbonize the real estate industry, addressing areas like energy efficiency, water reuse, and climate resilience. Their strategic partnerships facilitate distribution deals and contracts, accelerating the growth of their portfolio companies by providing access to a vast network of influential investors and customers.

The firm is led by a multi-disciplinary team, including CEO & Chief Investment Officer Brendan Wallace and Co-Founder & Chairman Brad Greiwe. The leadership team brings diverse expertise from real estate, finance, and technology, fostering a collaborative environment with corporate partners and portfolio companies. This collective experience enables Fifth Wall to identify and accelerate cutting-edge solutions with significant impact on the global Built World.
