WHAT WE DO
Everything we do at coUrbanize revolves around a singular mission – improving the real estate development process so our customers can build better neighborhoods.
We started by solving one of the biggest challenges that real estate and planning teams face today, community engagement. coUrbanize gives people a way to share their feedback without going to a public meeting and in their native language – by posting a comment online, texting their feedback, or leaving comments via voicemail.
HOW IT STARTED
I’m a city planner by trade. Like most planners, I wanted to impact change in our communities because the zip code you’re born in is one of the strongest predictors of your economic opportunities. When I was getting my Master’s in planning at MIT, I looked at who creates enormous change relatively quickly in communities. The answer? Real estate. Particularly, commercial real estate.
If I could change how developers work and what they decide to build, that would fundamentally change the built environment in communities everywhere.
This vision is still the lighthouse for our company – it’s what drives decisions, inspires our team, and energizes our customers.
