Proptech Collective’s 2024 Report: A Testament to Collaboration in a Divided World

The world can feel more divided than ever, but there are still signs of great people working together to solve big problems.

The Growth of Proptech in Canada: Key Insights from the 2024 Report

Proptech in Canada is evolving at an incredible pace. The 2024 Proptech Collective Report lays out a clear picture of where the industry stands today, highlighting the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping the future.

One of the biggest takeaways from this year’s report is the shift in founder focus. In a market that has seen economic turbulence, rising costs, and shifting consumer expectations, many proptech startups are prioritizing profitability and sustainability over aggressive growth. The days of endless funding rounds with no clear path to profitability are fading. Instead, proptech leaders are building smarter, leaner businesses that deliver real value.

Market Trends & Investment Landscape

  • Over 530 active proptech companies in Canada, spanning residential, commercial, and construction tech.
  • $800M+ raised by Canadian proptech startups in 2024, despite a tougher funding environment.
  • M&A is accelerating, with more than 65 acquisitions in the past five years, signaling increased consolidation and industry maturation.

The Role of AI in Proptech

AI is becoming a transformative force across the real estate and construction industries. The report highlights how AI is being used to:

  • Optimize lead-to-lease processes, making real estate transactions smoother.
  • Improve construction project management, enhancing scheduling, risk assessment, and cost estimation.
  • Enhance property management, enabling predictive maintenance and smarter energy consumption.

Proptech isn’t just about creating new companies—it’s about solving real-world problems with technology, efficiency, and better business models. The Canadian proptech ecosystem is doing just that, proving that innovation in real estate isn’t slowing down—it’s evolving.

The Role of REACH Canada & Bidmii’s Journey

Scaling a proptech company isn’t just about having a great idea—it’s about execution, industry connections, and the right support system. That’s where REACH Canada comes in. As part of Second Century Ventures and backed by the National Association of REALTORS®, REACH Canada is a powerhouse accelerator designed to help proptech companies scale faster and integrate into the real estate ecosystem.

Bidmii was fortunate to be part of the REACH Canada program, which has played a crucial role in our growth. Through the program, we’ve had access to:


Unmatched industry expertise
A network of top real estate professionals
Opportunities to build strategic integrations
Mentorship from leaders who have been in our shoes

Being part of REACH Canada means standing alongside some of the most innovative companies in proptech. The 2024 cohort was filled with game-changing startups that are pushing boundaries in financing, property management, home maintenance, and more. The relationships built through this program extend far beyond a single cohort—they become long-term partnerships that fuel industry-wide transformation.

Bidmii’s mission is clear: to become the de facto rails for home improvement and maintenance transactions. Through REACH Canada, we’ve accelerated our efforts, forged key integrations, and positioned ourselves as a trusted solution for real estate professionals, property managers, and homeowners.

Celebrating Key Industry Moments in 2024

The Canadian proptech industry isn’t just growing—it’s thriving. This year was packed with major events, game-changing collaborations, and industry-defining conversations. Here are some of the biggest highlights from 2024 that helped shape the ecosystem:

📍 Vancouver Chapter Launch & Event

The Proptech Collective Vancouver Chapter officially launched this year, and they wasted no time making an impact. Their inaugural event brought together founders, investors, and real estate professionals to discuss the future of proptech in Western Canada. This was a huge step in expanding Proptech Collective’s national presence, creating new opportunities for collaboration across the country.

🚀 Proptech Growth Summit

This year’s Proptech Growth Summit was nothing short of incredible. With 30+ founders and sales leaders in attendance, the event was a masterclass in scaling proptech companies, navigating today’s market challenges, and seizing new opportunities. The level of collaboration and shared insights at this event set the stage for even bigger things to come.

🎰 Blueprint Conference in Las Vegas

The Blueprint Conference in Las Vegas is the pinnacle of proptech events, bringing together the top minds in the industry. Canada showed up in a big way this year, with strong representation from across the ecosystem. Seeing Canadian proptech leaders making waves at a global level proves that we’re not just playing in this space—we’re shaping its future.

These events—and the conversations that happened at them—are proof that the proptech industry isn’t slowing down. Instead, it’s gaining momentum, fueled by the connections and partnerships that make real innovation possible.

Recognizing Our Partners & Community

Proptech isn’t built in isolation—it’s driven by collaboration, partnerships, and the people who believe in pushing the industry forward. Over the past year, Bidmii has had the privilege of working alongside some of the best in the business, and we wouldn’t be where we are today without the encouragement, advice, and support of so many industry leaders.

A special thank you to Stephanie Wood, Courtney Cooper, and Rachel Hay-Ching Yuen at Alate Partners. Their work on the Proptech Collective Report has helped shine a light on the incredible companies and people driving innovation across Canada. Without them, this report wouldn’t exist, and the industry wouldn’t have the same level of visibility and insight.

Beyond the report, there are countless individuals across the ecosystem who have played a role in supporting Bidmii’s growth—whether through partnerships, integrations, introductions, or simply being champions of what we’re building.
