About Matt Rightmire

Matt Rightmire is a venture partner at Building Ventures who combines more than a decade building Internet companies in Silicon Valley (joining Yahoo! pre-revenue in 1995, then COO of Efficient Frontier) with a decade-plus as an early-stage investor, giving him deep operator and investor pattern recognition for software, advertising, and marketplace businesses in the built environment space. After his Silicon Valley career, he deliberately moved back to New Hampshire and built his investing practice around backing high-tech startups in regions like New Hampshire and the broader Northeast, arguing that capital, talent, and connectivity increasingly support building meaningful tech companies far from traditional hubs.

Building Ventures is one of the very few specialist funds solely dedicated to the "built environment" across the full lifecycle—design, build, operate, and experience—explicitly positioning the physical world as "the next great programmable hardware platform," rather than treating construction/real estate as a side vertical. The fund's LP base is unusually concentrated in leading global AEC players and design firms, creating a strategically curated "demand side" coalition around their portfolio that functions as the Built Environment Innovation Network (BVIN), a proprietary network of 100+ senior executives that portfolio founders can directly access for pilots, feedback, and distribution.
