I’m thrilled to welcome Scott to our Board of Directors. As the leader of one of the most innovative real estate developers, his knowledge of the real estate ecosystem, and his drive for positive change in the industry match perfectly with our mission. He also adds substantial expertise to our Board with his deep public-company experience.”

“Smart windows represent one of the most impactful ways to reduce energy usage and carbon emissions from real estate,” said Scott Rechler, Chairman and CEO of RXR. “View has thoughtfully built the intellectual property, full-stack products, manufacturing capacity, operational infrastructure, and most importantly, a delighted customer base needed to transform the real estate industry. I’m looking forward to working with Rao and the team to rapidly scale this platform into an even more successful business.”

“We urgently need to reduce the carbon footprint of our built environment. View offers one of the best solutions to do this while also making buildings smarter, healthier, and more efficient,” said Edward Lees, Co-Head of the Environmental Strategies Group at BNP Paribas Asset Management. “The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which includes Smart Windows in the ITC, will now accelerate the roll-out of this innovative product that is already used in a growing number of leading buildings.”

“Anson is delighted to be participating in this strategic financing round that will enable View to embark on its next stage of growth,” said Moez Kassam, CIO of Anson Funds, a leading alternative asset management company with a core focus on global real estate securities. “View has proven out their smart window technology, helping their high-quality customer base reduce its environmental impact and we believe the ITC will help speed up adoption of this next-generation technology.”
