Our Story

Ivory Innovations was founded in 2018 by builder Clark Ivory and his daughter Abby with one goal in mind; driving positive and innovative change in housing affordability. Located at the University of Utah, we're an applied academic institution seeking to promote the most compelling ideas in housing. We do this by facilitating awards and connecting ideas to capital, mentors, and industry leaders who can scale them.
