Their investment focus revolves around the major unsolved problems within the Urban Stack, which is an all-encompassing term for every aspect of the built environment. This pertains to how cities are planned, constructed, and powered, as well as how inhabitants experience city life, work, and receive care. 2150's aim is to back tech entrepreneurs who are innovating in the Urban Stack, building businesses that intend to alter the design, construction, and energy use of our cities positively.
