Approach
How we build
BUILD's partners have started and sold companies of their own. The firm founds companies and invests in each through a dedicated vehicle, and a partner stays close to management for years.
01Model
BUILD started Pure Infusion and BUILD Mobility inside the firm before either had a customer.
We prefer to be involved early, when a partner's time and relationships change what a company becomes. Our partners take board seats, work alongside management, and stay through the years when a company is still proving itself.
BUILD holds each investment in its own vehicle.

Sectors
Healthcare
Healthcare is BUILD's deepest sector. The firm co-founded Pure Infusion in 2018. Pure Infusion merged with AleraCare in partnership with Hildred Capital in November 2025 and now operates more than 75 infusion centers in 14 states (Pure Infusion, May 2026).
BUILD also co-founded Memory Treatment Centers, a group of Florida clinics focused on Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
Infrastructure
BUILD opened BUILD Chile in February 2020 to back companies in Chile and to work on the country's water scarcity. The firm works there with Chilean partners on a seawater desalination project on the northern coast.
Mobility and other industries
Through BUILD Mobility, the firm took part in Xos Trucks' $20 million round in 2020 and helped fund Einride's $110 million Series B in 2021. BUILD is still an Einride shareholder. Xos listed on Nasdaq in August 2021. BUILD Mobility became Lane VC later that year.

Process
Selection
We look for a capable operator, a market we understand, and a customer who is badly served today. A partner who knows the industry leads the review from the first meeting.
Formation
When BUILD founds a company, the partners set up the entity, help build the first management team and arrange the first capital. When BUILD invests in an existing company, the firm forms a dedicated vehicle for that investment.
Board and operations
A BUILD partner stays close to management after the investment. Two BUILD partners serve on the board of Pure Infusion.
Long hold
BUILD has stayed with Pure from a single clinic in Billings, Montana in April 2019 to a national network in 2026. We plan for that kind of timeline from the start.
