The Future of Construction: A View Into the Next 50 Years

About

Construction finance leaders are used to planning ahead on projects, budgets, and job costs. But the technologies reshaping the industry over the next 50 years call for a different kind of planning. In this session, global futurist and best-selling author Richard Yonck examines how artificial intelligence, automation, and other exponential technologies will change how construction companies build, finance, and manage their work. Drawing on his research at the intersection of artificial and human intelligence, and his experience advising organizations including Amazon, Microsoft, NATO, and the UNDP, Yonck offers a grounded look at where construction is headed. Attendees will leave with a clearer sense of the trends worth watching, the risks worth planning for, and the questions every construction finance professional should be asking about the future of their business.
