Brickeye – a leading construction IoT and data analytics technology company – recently announced the successful first closing of a $10 million investment round. The company also welcomed new investors BDC Capital’s IP-backed Financing Fund and Graphite Ventures, with additional funding from existing investors GreenSky Ventures, Brightspark, EDC, and MaRS Investment Accelerator Fund. Brickeye plans to use the funds to grow its risk mitigation and productivity platform for the construction and insurance industries.
Utilizing the power of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, Brickeye’s suite of solutions enables job site monitoring, intelligent alerts and analytics, and smart automation. This helps general contractors, owners, developers, and insurance providers to effectively mitigate risk, boost productivity, and safeguard margins of high-rise building and infrastructure construction projects.
