A Comprehensive Biennial Evaluation of Startup Companies in the Proptech Space

DUBLIN, April 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "StartUps and their Impact on Smart Buildings 2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The report has identified 665 private companies founded between 2011 and 2020 in the smart buildings sector. This number has increased 38% since the 2nd edition of this report published two years ago. There was no slowdown in the number of Startups receiving investment last year despite the COVID-19 global pandemic and ensuing recession.

The definition of a Startup is 'a private company formed no earlier than 2011 that is focused on the commercial and industrial buildings market, is not a subsidiary or an acquisition of a larger company and is often financed by venture capital or private equity funding.'

The report includes a spreadsheet which lists all Startup acquisitions and investments in 2019 & 2020 and a graphics pack with high resolution charts from the report.
