6 November 2024 | Ep. 115 – Construction’s knowledge currency

 

In this episode of Stirring the Pot we’re having a kōrero with Kenneth Husted.

Unlock the secrets of successful tech transfer in the construction industry with our insightful discussion on the Endeavour Funded and HERA led Ngākopa Construction 4.0 research project!

Kenneth, project lead for the theme of Knowledge Transfer, shares how this unique initiative prioritises not only developing new technologies but ensuring they’re effectively adopted across the construction industry. He highlights the importance of early collaboration with end-users, working together to co-create solutions that meet real-world needs. Together, HERA CEO Troy and Kenneth dive into the knowledge transfer challenges faced in construction, where uptake often trails sectors like manufacturing.

They also discuss the project’s collaborative approach, involving experts on regulatory impacts, cultural expectations, and systemic thinking to support broad industry adoption. By focusing on tech transfer from the outset, the Construction 4.0 project aims to inspire transformative change in the sector. The ultimate goal is to provide tools and insights that empower the construction industry to advance through smart, sustainable, and inclusive practices.
