About Martin Blake

Senior Vice President, Urban Strategy & Partnerships at SquareFootEstate

A Self-Made Leader in Real Estate and Urban Innovation

After graduating with an MBA from Harvard Business School in 2013, Martin returned to California to assist with the family textile business. Frequent travels between Los Angeles, London, and Milan provided hands-on experience in negotiation, operations, and market research.

In 2017, Martin moved to Manhattan and joined SquareFoot, a fast-growing tech-powered commercial real estate firm. Within two years, he was promoted to Managing Director of Strategic Development, becoming the first woman to lead innovation across all SquareFoot markets.

Martin currently heads the Urban Enterprise Division, focusing on helping startups, NGOs, and mid-size firms find sustainable office solutions in cities like NYC, Houston, and LA.

Beyond real estate, Martin has investments in wellness, wine, and culinary ventures, maintaining a diverse portfolio that includes Tesla, Disney, and PropTech startups.
