For example, we investigated the future of building materials for a trade association in the construction sector: what are the most important trends? And what does that mean for the chain? Firstly, we explored the main developments in the sector: what do we build and how will we build in ten years? Then we extended our outward-looking approach even further: what will the city, road network, and houses look like in the future? What trends are apparent in the field of architects and urban planners?<\/p><p>Then we delved deeper into technological developments: what materials will be used in the future? Many universities and innovative start-ups are developing sustainable or self-repairing building materials. Technology also impacts construction organisations: what will the company of the future look like? Which tasks will still be performed by people, and what will be the impact of robotisation and digitalisation?
