Younger generation involvement in construction is essential to continue industry-wide expansion and innovation. And today, construction is truly a dynamic industry with more career options to choose from where anyone can apply their individual skillsets and passions.

In this episode, Eric sits down with Fopefoluwa (Fope) Bademosi, Circular Economy and Construction Researcher at Autodesk, and Evan Reilly, Senior Emerging Technology Engineer at Skanska, inside the Autodesk Technology Center in Boston, MA, to break down the most effective methods for inspiring the next generation, educating them about the opportunities available to them, and some of the biggest industry problems that need innovative thinkers with unique perspectives to solve.

We explore:

How to resonate with college and pre-college students when presenting about construction
How better data capture and purpose-built technology has increased the need for a diverse array of skillsets beyond construction-specific expertise
How to promote new ideas through establishing a culture of innovation

Digital Builder is hosted by Eric Thomas of Autodesk.
