Five-Year Innovations Report
Over the last five years,
Ivory Innovations has acted on its mission to catalyze innovation in housing affordability by identifying and supporting over 120 of the most promising housing solutions in North America. This report details research findings about the United States housing market and its affordability challenges. The report also highlights key questions about how to tackle these issues and highlights the organizations we have championed who are making big strides on these issues.
The solutions highlighted in this report illustrate the breadth and depth of opportunity for new ideas and bold entrepreneurs to address the housing crisis. While we have identified some wonderful solutions, more are needed to address the full scale and scope of this growing challenge. Housing affordability, accessibility, and attainability are critical to our nation’s future. There is incredible potential for bold, innovative ideas and entrepreneurs to make an impact in this industry and for the country. Whether in construction and design, finance, or policy and regulatory reform, there are innovators striving to make change in every part of the housing market. Yet the scale of the issues we face means existing solutions are only the tip of the iceberg. There is so much untapped opportunity to make a difference in this space.
Our mission at Ivory Innovations and with the Ivory Prize for Housing Affordability is to catalyze innovation in housing affordability. We hope you will join us on this journey.
