Brandon Weber joins WiredScore board

WiredScore, the global rating scheme for digital connectivity in commercial real estate, has announced Brandon Weber as its newest board member today. Weber, who was most recently co-founder of leasing and asset management software company VTS, has joined WiredScore’s board following the company’s recent $9 million Series A fundraising. He joins WiredScore co-founder and CEO Arie Barendrecht and partner of Bessemer Venture Partners Jeremy Levine on the board. WiredScore’s board is supported by Fifth Wall Ventures partner Brad Greiwe, as well as William Newton, WiredScore’s president and EMEA MD, and finance director Tom Stenhouse. William Newton commented: “Arie and I have known Brandon for many years, and admired his passion and intelligence. We’ve stood shoulder to shoulder working at fast-growth start-ups, supporting the property industry as it undergoes a tech evolution. Brandon’s wealth of knowledge and expertise in both property and tech, as well as business transformation, are second to none. “Brandon has extensive knowledge and experience of how to scale a business, as well as the ability to navigate the challenges of growing a start-up. His understanding of WiredScore’s wider long-term vision will add unparalleled value to our company as we embark on our product and growth strategy following the recent successful round of funding.” Weber said: “I’ve joined the WiredScore board not only because of what the company is achieving now but for the impact it will have on the real estate industry over the coming years. We are moving to a future where all buildings will need to be connected to deliver improved productivity, insights and data for their owners and users. Achieving this requires entirely new technologies and practices.” Click here to listen to the recent appearance of Brandon Weber and Nick Romito, founder and chief executive of VTS, on TechTalk Radio.
