What can we do to change the culture of our industry? How has it evolved and where is it going to lead us in years to come? These are all questions we are going to answer on today’s episode with our special guest, Alice Leung.
Alice is the Vice President of Platform and Product Strategy at Brick and Mortar Ventures. Before this, Alice worked for DPR Construction building and implementing construction technologies in large acute-care hospitals and data centers.
Her work has had an impact all over the world, as she helped start up DPR’s South East Asia Headquarters in Singapore in 2016, too!
But once she realized the mind-numbing slow pace of digitization in our own industry, she decided enough was enough and began focusing on disrupting the way we design and construct the built world.
In today’s episode, we will be discussing the culture in our industry, how we can change them, and how our own industry is evolving.
