Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) is recognizing Chase Gilbert, CEO of Built Technologies, as one of the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs of 2020 at its Builders + Innovators Summit.

Goldman Sachs selected Chase as one of 100 entrepreneurs from multiple industries to be honored at the two-day event. Chase Gilbert is the founder and CEO of Built Technologies. Chase and his co-founders formed Built in 2014 after living through the frustrations of navigating construction loans and recognizing there had to be a better way with technology. Today Built’s platform powers the residential and commercial construction lending divisions of over 100 banks and also helps thousands of developers and contractors navigate lien waivers and accelerate construction payments.

Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs. “Our Builders + Innovators Summit brings together a collective of impressive future leaders who are striving to drive meaningful change. For over 150 years, Goldman Sachs has supported entrepreneurs as they launch and grow their businesses. That’s why we are pleased to recognize Chase as one of the most intriguing entrepreneurs of 2020.”

In addition to honoring 100 entrepreneurs, the summit, which this year will take place virtually, consists of general sessions and clinics led by seasoned entrepreneurs, academics and business leaders as well as resident scholars.
