The “built world” is becoming increasingly complex. In addition, the lack of professionals is also growing. These two trends together form the basis for the need to prefabricate the building process, a development that falls under the umbrella of Construction Technology (“contech”) and therefore offers starting points for improving the (traditionally low) margins in the construction industry.

Automation uses technology to automate tasks that once required people. The moment it is applied to transactions, the need for human action and therefore the “middle man” disappears here. Automation of transactions thus shortens the chain from product / service to the user. As a result, either lower prices for the user or higher margins for the provider are possible.

Work, living and leisure activities are no longer strictly separated parts of life. Places where these three uses of time come together are emerging in increasing numbers. In these so-called “third places” prosperity and well-being come together, enabling people to “be”. This process makes the third place an excellent occasion to raise rental prices to a higher level.

Experiences are increasingly becoming more important than possessions. Sharing becomes the norm. Products therefore become services because value is added to it. By capitalizing on this value, a win-win is created and with it, in addition to the “green” that sharing itself already has, an ultimate form of sustainability.
