SoftBank’s Vision Fund In Talks To Invest In EquipmentShare, A Construction Startup With A Twist—Operating Profits

SoftBank’s embattled Vision Fund isn’t done trying to mint new tech unicorns—if it looks like they’re at least close to turning a profit. Missouri-based EquipmentShare is in talks to raise at least $150 million in a new funding round led by SoftBank, according to prospectus documents viewed by Forbes. These indicate that the new round, if completed, would give the construction tech startup a post-money valuation of at least $1.5 billion and would increase the startup’s total fundraising to at least $220 million.
