Profile
We founded Urban Us in 2013 because we concluded that startups would play an outsized role in re-imagining the core sectors used to design, build and operate cities. It’s working – our earliest investments are leading the way in areas like electrification of mobility, conservation of water, resilient food supplies and natural hazard simulations.
