EU Clusters Talks: Transition Pathway for Construction: How to green and digitalise the ecosystem
May 3, 2023 @ 08:30 - 09:45
The construction industry is the second-largest economic ecosystem in the European Union, providing employment to approximately 25 million people. While it has the potential to significantly contribute to the European Green Deal and Digital Decade, it also faces various challenges. These include the Covid-19 pandemic aftermath, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, climate change, rapid digital transformation, and the shift towards a circular economy. The European Commission has developed a “Transition Pathway for Construction,” which outlines actions to support the development of safer buildings and affordable housing for Europeans.
