Evolution of Construction Industry in New Tech Environment

In this episode, a panel of four experts join host Michael Evans as they dive into what new technology trends mean for the construction industry today and into the future. While the panel agrees that advances in technology have allowed the industry to work better, faster and more collaboratively – they each discuss how challenges remain in their specific roles and regions.
