What is Build House?
Build House is a co-living and co-working space in Hayes Valley specifically for ANZ founders and operators building in San Francisco.
It's a place to live, work, and connect with other ambitious people from Australia and New Zealand who are doing the same thing you are.
Who is it for?
Build House is for:
- Founders who are in SF to build their company
- Operators at growth-stage companies who want to be embedded in the startup ecosystem
- People who are serious about their work and want to be around others who are too
It's not a hostel or a tourist accommodation. It's a working environment for people building things.
What's included?
- Private room in a shared house in Hayes Valley
- High-speed internet and dedicated desk space
- Access to the Build House community (Slack, events, intros)
- Monthly founder dinners and community events
- Introductions to the broader ANZ network in SF
