How AI Will Reshape Construction - The View From Silicon Valley
Most of what you've heard about AI in construction comes from vendors selling you something.
This isn't that.
On April 21st 2026, Bricks & Bytes is bringing Professor Martin Fischer from Stanford University to London for a one-off evening with construction's senior leadership.
Professor Fischer isn't a tech pundit. He's the Kumagai Professor of Engineering at Stanford, Director of the Center for Integrated Facility Engineering (CIFE), and the person who literally pioneered Virtual Design and Construction.
His research has shaped how the world's largest contractors build... from 4D modelling to construction robotics to AI-driven scheduling. He's published 340+ peer-reviewed papers. His lab created the foundational work behind tools you're already using.
Now he's focused on what comes next: how AI, robotics, and automation will fundamentally change how projects are designed, delivered, and operated, and what that means for the leaders making capital allocation decisions today.
This is not a webinar. This is not a conference panel. This is a three-hour, closed-door session with one of the most authoritative voices on construction's technological future live, in London, for one night only.
Why this matters to you:
You're running a business in an industry facing a workforce crisis, margin compression, and clients demanding digital capability you're still building. The decisions you make about AI in the next 12–24 months will define your competitive position for the next decade. You need the smartest, most honest perspective available.
Professor Fischer's view from Stanford sits at the intersection of the world's leading AI research and 30+ years of deep construction industry knowledge. That combination doesn't exist anywhere else on the planet. And it's not coming back to London any time soon.
Spaces are extremely limited. This is a curated room if you lead a construction business and want the unfiltered Silicon Valley perspective on where AI is actually taking this industry, secure your place now.
