Reimagining New Home Construction with Veev’s Amit Haller

In this episode of the Top of Mind podcast, Mike Simonsen sits down with Amit Haller, CEO and Co-Founder of Veev Group, to talk about how Veev has entirely re-imagined the centuries-old new home construction process. Amit shares how he’s applied approaches from the semiconductor industry to address many of the challenges of traditional home building, and discusses Veev’s bold ambitions for its technology to dramatically reduce costs, accelerate delivery, improve quality, and reduce waste. He also looks more broadly at the dynamics shaping the industry, and what to expect in the future.

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn: 

• What homebuilders can learn from semiconductor companies
• Why California wildfires inspired this company to build homes in California
• Why the time is right for productized home building
• How to achieve a 30-day turnaround for building a new home – Why he wants homeowners to “hug the walls”
• The challenges facing builder trade labor, and why it makes sense to streamline
• How Veev reduces landfill waste by orders of magnitude and dramatically reduces carbon emissions
• What features homes of the future will need to have in order to be energy positive
