Faura

I'm going to be pitching Faura and mingling at the Plug and Play Silicon Valley Summit for the next 3 days :-) Let me know if you're going to be there OR if you're in the South Bay and want to grab food / coffee. Excited to show the world what we're doing with Faura. ??

Super excited to be presenting "10 Years of the MetaProp Accelerator at Columbia University" at the #CREtechNY conference this Thursday, November 14th. Join me and star 2024 #Accelerator graduate Valkyrie Holmes, CEO at Faura, on the #InnovationStage at 10:00am to learn about her experience and the program history, benefits, and details around applying for the 2025 cohort. If you're interested in becoming a #mentor or an early-stage #founder solving a big problem in the built environment, this presentation and fireside chat are definitely for you ?? #CREtechNewYork #MetaProp #PropTech #NYCRealEstateTechWeek

Building climate resilience is a team sport. ???? In today's episode of Climate Proofers, Valkyrie Holmes, CEO & Co-Founder of Faura, describes how property owners, insurers, and tech companies like hers can collaborate to make homes more defensible from wildfires and other climate risks. In doing so, they can work to close the climate affordability gap and empower developers and insurers to do more business. She also talks about navigating the highly regulated, highly charged insurance sector, and the industry's appetite for innovation in the midst of an increasingly volatile climate.

ENDING DAY ONE! ?? ?? It is an absolute joy to be in the presence of such enthusiastic climate and insurance professionals, alongside brilliant women at both InsurTech New England Climate Innovation and AltaWorld's Women in Insurance conferences this year! ?? From getting into Boston and rushing across the city to give a keynote to folks at Underscore VC, to waking up with a breakfast by Benekiva and sitting on a panel alongside Lillian Corman, Rebecca (Silvers) Ray, and Marissa Buckley, to having dinner and rooftop drinks with Bobbie Shrivastav, Brett M., Meg Duty, Peilin Corbanese, Dana Grodin, and so so many more fan-TASTIC women, my heart is truly full. ?? Tune in again tomorrow for Part 2!!! ??

I'd love to thank the team over at Commercial Observer for featuring Faura and I in their Technology Segment last week! ?? Shoutout to Philip Russo for all of his hard work and time, always a pleasure to work with you, as well as Yvonne Albinowski for the wonderful photos! ?? This article paints such a great picture, not only about me, but why I am dedicated to solving this problem of climate risk for underprivileged communities. "If I believed the solution to solving a lot of the property resilience and insecurity in the property market was in banking, or I believed it was in government, or in some other industry besides insurance, then I would be there. [...] I’m in insurance because I think it’s the best avenue to solve the problem. And, I think when you’re married to solving a problem instead of the solution, it can take you anywhere and you have to adapt." ?? READ MORE: https://lnkd.in/gf2wvXUV
