New Ventures in the field! As New Ventures, we are driving innovation in the area of digital construction. 🚧 It's very important that we don't just innovate theoretically. Innovation always starts with the customer & their problems. It is essential to gain domain knowledge to understand how things work. Generating domain knowledge also means getting hands dirty directly in practice.
This time Anja Hornikel interned at a construction company that focuses mainly on small construction projects for private owners, public institutions like universities and architects.
Anja finally...
✔ got insights into how a construction company works, from the administrative departments to the technical planning and the work of the construction workers on the construction site.
✔ had the opportunity to understand the processes & their complex interrelationships.
✔ was talking to the construction workers and was part of their daily work. This gave a very valuable insight into what is important to them.
📢 Takeaway: On the construction site, the issue of young talent is super present, they are all over 40, the foremen over 50; very little digitized and mega tightly calculated orders with very low margins.
Understanding the field you are innovating in, is so important for successful ideas or even starting businesses! 💪
