Editorial Perspective
JLL Spark is the corporate venture arm of JLL—$340M+ deployed across 40+ PropTech startups since 2018. They run a dual strategy: Pull (strategic requirements from JLL business lines) and Push (identifying disruptors). This means your startup needs to solve a problem that JLL's commercial RE services actually face—building operations, tenant experience, transaction tech, sustainability compliance. Concrete VC is their appointed EMEA investment advisor, creating a funnel from Concrete's portfolio into JLL's client base. Best fit for B2B SaaS founders who can survive a corporate pilot process and whose product enhances JLL's service offerings. Not for consumer or residential plays.

Investment Team.
Tomas M. Krogh
Fractional Chief Commercial Officer
I specialize in taking founder-led commercial engines apart until only the parts that work are left standing. Before advising, I operated-scaling a business from zero to the FT1000 list three years running and facilitating 10 billion DKK in property transactions. I don't write polite advisory decks; I give you the exact commercial reality check you need before an investment committee does it for you.
