Beyond the Blueprint: Technology, Labor & the Evolving North American Construction Workforce

General / Main

This session would explore the economic impact of emerging technologies—such as automation, artificial intelligence, robotics, etc.—on the North American construction industry's labor force. The panel will address both job transformation and creation, the evolving skill sets required, and the imperative for workforce development. Industry experts could discuss investment trends in these technologies and their return on investment for efficiency and innovation, while a labor market economist could analyze their effects on employment patterns and professional development for engineers and tradespeople.
