Demonstrations are impressive, pilot projects are common and investment continues to grow. </p><p>Yet across the global construction industry, large-scale deployment on live projects remains limited.Improving productivity and delivery performance is critical to achieving both climate and economic objectives. </p><p>Construction technology has the potential to transform how projects are planned, built and operated — but only when it moves beyond innovation showcases and into everyday site workflows.</p><p>This session examines what it actually takes to move ConTech from pilots to production, focusing on:</p><ul><li>Why many promising technologies struggle to scale beyond demonstration projects.</li><li>Procurement models, contractual risk allocation and project structures that either enable or block adoption.</li><li>The cultural and organisational barriers within contractors, clients and supply chains.</li><li>Standards, interoperability and data frameworks required for reliable integration on site.</li><li>What technology founders, contractors and asset owners must do differently to deliver measurable productivity gains.</li></ul><p>The discussion moves beyond the technology itself to examine the system surrounding it.</p><p>The aim is practical clarity: how do we transition from isolated innovation to industry-wide implementation — delivering construction that is safer, faster and more predictable in real project environments?</p><p>Thank you to the event sponsors that make this weekend happen: <a href="https://molio.dk/">Molio</a>, <a href="https://www.rib-software.com/">RIB Software</a>, <a href="https://www.ramboll.com/">Ramboll</a>, <a href="https://henninglarsen.com/">Henning Larsson</a>, <a href="https://www.proptechdk.dk/">PropTech DK</a>, <a href="https://webuilddenmark.dk/english/">WeBuildDenmark</a>.</p><p>Enjoy!</p><p>This is the ZERO Construct podcast, the podcast dedicated to bringing you insights and expertise from professionals around the world on how we can create a more future proof industry while reducing carbon in the built environment. </p><p><a href="https://linktr.ee/zeroconstruct">Find out more about ZERO and join our community today.</a><em></em></p><p>If you have any questions or are interesting in sponsoring the podcast then please contact podcasts [at] zeroconstruct.com.</p><p>Artwork created using AI (poorly!)<a href="https://playgroundai.com/"></a></p><p><em>All comments on this podcast are personal and do not necessarily reflect those of the organisations they represent.</em></p>
