Why Team³? A Call to Purpose
Ignite Purpose
Makers crave meaningful work—building homes, machines, and off-world habitats—while owning a stake in the outcome. Team³ delivers projects that inspire and endure.
Secure Prosperity
By acquiring businesses and land, Team³ generates equity and resources to shield members from economic volatility, ensuring long-term stability.
Ensure Survival
Resource scarcity, climate pressures, and automation demand self-sufficient communities and off-world expansion. Team³ builds the infrastructure for both, from Western Canada to the Moon and Mars.
