About this listen
In this episode of Wired & Hammered, we explore corporate venture capital with Eliot Jones, Principal at Trimble Ventures. As part of the global technology leader's investment arm, Eliot shares insights on how established corporations are partnering with emerging construction tech companies to drive industry innovation.
Key topics covered:
- Trimble's investment sweet spot: Why Series A startups are the focus
- The shocking reality: Construction represents 14% of global GDP but gets only 1% of VC funding
- How the Construction Startup Competition sources 500+ companies annually
- Building two-sided partnerships between corporates and startups
- The evolving role of CIOs in construction companies
- Interoperability challenges vs. data protection in the AI era
- Why getting construction workers back to the field (not the office) drives product development
Whether you're a construction professional curious about emerging technologies, a startup founder looking to understand corporate partnerships, or simply interested in how innovation happens in traditional industries, this conversation offers valuable insights into the intersection of construction and venture capital.
