The Future of Construction - Nicolas Waern & Jochen Burkhart

What did the most funded startup in construction do wrong? What do parametric design, generative design, and an AI-first intent mean? And what will the cutting edge be in 15 years? How can $2 Billion dollars spent on re-defining construction have ended in Bankruptcy for the most funded Construction startup in the world, Katerra? What was their fundamental problem from the beginning? We need to make better decisions faster. That is what the future is all about. But better for whom? For people? For companies in the real estate industry? For the planet? Will we even be allowed to construct more buildings in the future? And where will we get the materials? And will the materials change enough that buildings can turn into Transformer to take us anywhere we need to go? In this special episode of BeyondBuildings Podcast, our founder, Nicolas Waern was interviewed by Jochen Burkhardt about the Future of Construction. Nicolas’s extensive background in innovation and strategy shines through in this episode, and he weaves in other industry advancements, and much else, in order to boldly go where few people have dared to go before. This was a totally unscripted interview where Nicolas Waern did not know anything about the questions beforehand. We get to hear his vision about how the construction will be in the future. We will go in-depth about smarter materials, automated machinery, modern tools, and the need for modern mindsets. What we need from the future and potentially how we could go beyond buildings. We hope you will enjoy this episode and
