Ben Pleat: Lessening the Isolation of Apartment Living

Ben: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! Cobu is addressing the global loneliness challenge by helping power strong, vibrant communities in apartment buildings across the world. Loneliness impacts 61% of adults in the US according to Cigna (pre-Covid data). Living in apartment buildings can be an isolating experience — Cobu makes it easy for residents to connect with their neighbors and neighborhood, turning apartments into homes. By creating a strong sense of community, Cobu helps leading apartment building managers like Bozzuto, Greystar, AEW, Lincoln Property Company, and more to increase resident satisfaction and retention across over 43 cities in the US and Canada.

Justin: When companies, governments, and organizations implement field projects — such as building solar panels on the roofs of schools, installing irrigation canals, or building local retail stores  — they often struggle to get good information about what is happening on all their sites. A lack of information not only makes management difficult, but it prevents managers and teams from catching and fixing issues. This can lead to poor quality infrastructure, cost over-runs, and serious safety concerns.
