BuiltWorlds

The BuiltWorlds Summit at Leonard : what an event ! I am honored to have had the opportunity to moderate a panel on low-carbon materials. It was a true pleasure to exchange ideas with such passionate and knowledgeable experts as Mathilde DION RABIER from PLENDI by VINCI Construction and Andres Mitnik from Strong by Form. Their expertise and commitment to a more sustainable future are both impressive and inspiring. Thank you to all the participants for your insightful questions and for contributing to making this event a success. Together at VINCI, we are taking important steps towards innovative and responsible solutions for our planet. #BuiltWorldsSummit #Innovation #Sustainability #Materials #LowCarbon #Construction #Startup

If there was any doubt about the level of innovation currently being developed in the AEC industry, yesterday's Demo Night Competition should have effectively quashed it. Generously hosted by Bouygues Construction, who also hosted the day's Building Tech Research Track and Venture Forum meetings as well as a post-competition reception, the 2024 Paris Summit Demo Night shined a spotlight on 10 of industry's leading edge startups: Alrik, Cassette, ConcR | Smart Monitoring, DataForm Lab, GScan, Kontrad, LumenCache, WakeCap, PrīmX, and ECODROP. The technologies presented spanned a wide, diverse spectrum of problem solving, showcasing stand out innovations in an industry relatively rife with it. We saw an emphasis on ESG, offsite construction, advanced materials, practical applications of AI, and quicker, more accurate data collection and tracking. But while each of our competitors made compelling pitches and stood poised in responding to our judges' meticulous scrutiny, there could only be one winner. And that was GScan. GScan is a groundbreaking, AI-powered technology that relies on certain naturally occurring subatomic particles (ie, muons, electrons and positrons) to scan structures and materials (up to 20 meters thick), visualize them in 3D, and produce a chemical composition analysis, from which a wealth of information can be gleaned. Please join us in celebrating GScan as well as all of our Demo Nigh competitors, and thanking Bouygues Construction, whose generosity was integral to this event's overwhelming success.

The Paris heatwave is a scorcher. But it's nothing compared to the inferno the US power grid is facing. At the #BuiltWorlds Paris Summit, I laid bare the brutal truth: our centralized energy system is a dinosaur, gasping for air as climate change intensifies. We're talking rolling blackouts, skyrocketing copper prices, and a looming "train wreck" in critical mineral supply chains. This isn't just about inconvenience – it's about lives on the line. The Texas winter storm is a chilling reminder of what happens when the lights go out for good. But there's a silver lining. We're on the cusp of a decentralized energy revolution – a power shift that could rewrite the rules of the game. Microgrids, low-voltage DC power, and innovative companies like LumenCache are showing us a path forward. It's a high-stakes race against time. The chessboard is set, the pieces are moving. Are you ready to play your part in this energy revolution? #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #Microgrids #ClimateChange #Sustainability #BuiltWorlds #BESummit24 Leonardo Rocchetti Guillaume Bazouin Olivier LEPINOY Gout Sean Wrenn Luis Amorim Hassan Albalawi, PhD Allen Preger Gabriel Cuervo Raymond Levitt Aaron Anderson Cutler Knupp Mauricio Tessi Weiss Cameron Mabley Karim Abdel-Ghaffar Plaza Nicholas Kuhn Will Chung Antonia Elisa Soler Blasco J.P.

And that’s a wrap on BuiltWorlds' 2024 Paris Summit! Builtworlds is the leading platform connecting construction, technology & investment leaders around the world, engaging millions of stakeholders online through community news and with approximately 300 of the sector’s leading companies through its research network (peer groups, research, conferences). Members have committed more than €4bn capital for investments in construction & property technology, employ more than 2.3 million people worldwide and have annual turnover of more than €1.1 trillion, globally. Four days of conversing about the future of #construction with our industry peers, such as Vinci, Ferrovial, Saint-Gobain, Cemex, Dassault Systèmes, Hilti and many more. Including 1 day of sharing the latest industry trends, innovations and startup pitches hosted at Bouygues offices by Bouygues Construction. I had the pleasure of hearing my colleagues at Bouygues Construction and peers at BuiltWorlds Paris Summit during their insightful panels, which highlighted one core principle that is at the very heart of all that we do: #innovation. Innovation by building new construction methods such as BRYCK to optimize building conception and rethink fundamental building elements like elevator shafts. Stemming from a partnership with Dassault Systèmes, BRYCK integrates modular building components, off-site construction, digitalization and logistics to enhance productivity while reducing environmental impact. Innovation by investing in early-stage startups to support the transformation of our industry. At the Paris Summit, we spotlighted our active engagement in the European ;#ConTech startup ecosystem, aiming to empower startups to advance their solutions through our scale-up program, #ScaleOne, and our partnering programs with co-financing efforts. To strengthen the French construction ecosystem, we are proud and excited to be a founding member of Contech France, which launched on Tuesday 25th June 2024. We build for life! #Startups #ConTech Edward Bouygues Romain VONDIERE Renaud Digoin Danzin Edward Woods Tanja Kufner Cameron Mabley Eliot Jones

Stepping into new markets! Well, sort of 😉🌍 On Tuesday, Constantin attended the BuiltWorlds Summit in Paris. Builtworlds is an event that gathers industry leaders and innovators in the construction and built environment sectors to discuss and showcase the latest advancements in technology, sustainability, and collaboration. Right up our alley! So we were delighted to be invited by our friends at Leonard from VINCI to join them at this year's Summit. We spent the day having lots of engaging conversations, getting to know the different markets, and meeting many different experts, from investors and VCs to general contractors. 💬🤝 We also got to see presentations on a variety of topics, including innovation in construction materials, environmental challenges, and the use of advanced technologies to improve productivity. 🏗️🌱🔧 What was especially fascinating was learning about the markets outside of Europe, such as America, the Middle East or Africa. Since these aren’t markets we cross paths with often, it was very interesting to hear about their insights and broadening our perspective on the industry's global landscape. 🌐 We had a great day and it was definitely worth the trip to Paris. 💨 We would also like to send a special thanks to Valentin PIPERNO for the unwavering support throughout the years. It was great to see you again! 😊
