📝 Litehaus raises $1.7M
News of the Day
Focused on modular construction to cut costs, time, and emissions, Litehaus recently raised €1.46M in pre-seed funding from European and U.S. investors. Thibault and Simi Launay set out to build their dream home in Portugal—but after 14 months of delays, soaring costs, and managing over 10 subcontractors, they instead built a startup. Their frustration inspired Litehaus, a platform streamlining home construction by connecting landowners and developers with vetted architects, builders, and designers, while offering real-time cost and progress tracking. The couple now aims to become Europe’s fastest-growing construction tech startup—finally moving into their long-delayed home next month.
