Sustainable business and healthy ecosystems are the basis for healthy living. The construction industry is one of the most resource-intensive sectors of the economy. Demand for housing is also continuously increasing. Accordingly, the construction industry is challenged to use raw materials and energy more efficiently so that buildings can be designed, built, and operated more sustainably. These lighthouse projects from the Nemetschek Group show that sustainability and digitalization go hand-in-hand in the construction industry – from the initial design to the operation of the finished building.
