A new podcast from the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) has launched with a mission to probe the future of construction.
21st Century Construction, or 21CC, aims to tell unusual and interesting stories to support CIOB’s top priorities: quality and safety, environmental sustainability, and skills gaps.
The first episode, available here, features a Canadian architect whose team created a modular, precast concrete system for repairing Ukrainian apartment blocks damaged or destroyed by Russian missiles.
Also in the episode, construction social media influencers explain how a good LinkedIn following can boost your career prospects and attract talent to your company.
The Events & Media section of our Directory includes our Construction Podcasts Index feature
which lists construction-specific podcasts covering a wide range of the industry’s sectors and interests.
A tech jargon-busting session clears up confusion over VR, AR, and MR. Also, in a feature created in partnership with Procore, the podcast explores what a “digital first” construction company looks like.
Journalists from all CIOB’s publications – Construction Management, CIOB People, BIMplus, and Global Construction Review – will contribute stories to the podcast.
“Many of us on the team here have been covering construction for many years, and we think the solutions to the industry’s chronic issues will probably emerge from unexpected places,” said Rod Sweet, editor of Global Construction Review and the podcast. “So, expect the unexpected and, in the process, some darn good stories.”
The Construct UK Sales & Marketing Directory hosts over 75 articles, 1,000 construction events and 30 different databases for download. The annual £195 (+VAT) subscription fee provides unlimited access to all resources on the site.
