Over the coming weeks, I'll be interviewing leaders and industry experts across the globe to discuss common problems people are facing and explore the innovative solutions that will help you in your learning journey. This week, I'm joined by Anthony Sertorio, technical solutions executive at Autodesk. Now, Anthony brings a really unique blend of construction experience and digital innovation. Having worked on major projects in Australia and the US, he's now helping leading engineering and construction firms unlock the full value of their data. From his early days on site to shaping digital strategies at Autodesk, Anthony's passionate about bridging the gap between traditional construction and emerging tech.In this episode, we dig into why most construction data goes unused, how better data strategies can drive smarter decisions, and how AI and automation are changing the way the industry works faster than ever. We also discuss how companies can start small, experiment without overwhelm, and get directionally correct without turning into a tech company overnight. So if you're thinking about digitization, automation, or how to use your project data more effectively, this one's packed with ideas to help you take that first step.
