CREATING A DIGITAL SOLUTION FOR EARLY-STAGE BUILDING DESIGN, TARGETING LOW CO2 ALTERNATIVES FOR THE RESIDENTIAL SECTOR

At CRH, specifically from the Innovation Center for Sustainable Construction (iCSC), we identify sustainability to be a fundamental strategic imperative for our business, that is deeply embedded in all aspects of our business. Our vision is to develop solutions that build, connect and improve our world. Since the construction industry contributes to circa 40% of the CO2 emissions, we are bringing to you two challenges that aim to tackle the existing construction industry and provide sustainable solutions to our customers.

1. DIGITAL SOLUTION DEMO DAY

Dedicated to startups, with a specialization in sustainability and digital technology, allowing them to showcase their value for CRH and our customers and to explore in-depth strategic partnership opportunities.

Why participate?

• Address a real-world environmental issue
• Gain recognition from and access to a global building materials leader
• Expand your network and connect with industry professionals
• Win a paid pilot project and partner with CRH in developing this solution

The Demo Day, serves as a springboard for mutual growth, offering not only a platform for collaboration but also a competitive landscape where excellence is recognized and rewarded.

The Digital Solution would empower architects, designers, engineers, consultants and construction companies to design zero CO2 buildings and cities.

By participating, startups will gain the opportunity to win a paid pilot project bringing their innovative solutions in this digital environment, while gaining access to CRH’s extensive global network.

Exceptional contributions will pave the way for further discussions aimed at long-term joint ventures with CRH.

To support you and your team, a webinar will be organized one-week prior the event that will provide you with the key data and features, collected during our Customer discovery phase carried out in three different markets, allowing you time to put together your solution.
