First Fund Partners with BuildMapper

It gives First Fund great pride to announce its investment in BuildMapper, founded by CEO Jithan Virk.

BuildMapper is a platform providing a central network for the construction industry by tracking current project and company information. The company aims to offer the most active, trusted, and informative construction network built on top of real-time construction data. It provides subcontractors, retailers, and builders an effective way to use industry data to build their businesses. 

“I'm very excited to announce the partnership between BuildMapper and First Fund. The BuildMapper team has worked hard to develop a great product and is now ready to take the company to the next level. The value that First Fund brings will help us accelerate our growth and reach our vision for the company,” stated Jithan Virk, Founder and CEO of BuildMapper.

Commenting on the partnership, First Fund founder Samarth Chandola said, “BuildMapper caught our eye because it is building a construction-specific CRM and network platform on top of a real-time database. It’s bringing technology to construction Trades, and automating the process by which they discover, bid on, and win projects. This high potential PropTech startup also gets a massive home-field advantage given Vancouver’s hot real-estate market, and it is only fitting that a solution such as Buildmapper comes out of a market such as Vancouver.”
