Episode 169: Ross Maguire, CEO and co-founder of Azure Printed Homes

Ross Maguire, CEO and co-founder of Azure Printed Homes, the first-to-market construction company to utilize 3D printing technology and recycled materials to create modern prefab units 70% faster and 30% less expensive than ever before, while making a positive impact on the environment. Ross holds an MS in Civil Engineering and has 13 years in construction, design and project management. He grew his London-based construction company for 8 years, and co-founded Azure in 2019. Azure initially bootstrapped its growth and raised a pre-seed angel earlier this year. The company generates $400K/mo in revenue and has $11.5MM in pre-orders. Mass production of the units will begin before the end of this year.

Ross holds over a decade of front-line construction experience - committed to ensuring client gratification, guiding design development to achieve & surpass client desires whilst always keeping two eyes on live & anticipated costs, two hands on swift & precise delivery whilst maintaining two feet on the ground - providing open and honest communication from beginning to end with every benefactor of the process.

In our conversation, Ross explains:

• One man’s trash is another man’s treasure: the importance of recycling during the homebuilding process
• Factory-made homes bring a level of consistency not found during the traditional homebuilding process
• Word-of-mouth advertising is sometimes all you need to grow a business, as long as you have a product that sells itself
• Using crowdfunding as a seed money source to maintain independence
• Your family is your refuge; finding strength in loved ones
