AI in construction tech - #SFTechWeek
Hosted by
*◟*
*◟*In the era of rapid technological progress, we often underestimate how deeply the built world shapes our lives. While Silicon Valley races toward AGI, construction, one of the oldest yet most critical industries, still struggles with inefficiencies that touch us every day. Even something as simple as the price of the milk you buy at your local grocery store is influenced by the hidden costs of construction inefficiency.
At this SF Tech Week event, hosted by Surfaice, we’ll dive into the challenges construction faces today and how AI is reshaping its future.
The panel will feature a unique conversation structured across three “horizons” of AI in construction:
– Distant Horizon: Nelson Koen, lecturer at Stanford and expert in real estate and construction, will share his long-term vision for how far AI can go and what excites him most about the future.
– Mid Horizon (3–5 years): KP Reddy, Managing Partner at Shadow VC and a leading voice in AEC disruption, will explore where he sees the industry heading from an investment and innovation perspective.
– Near Horizon (Now): Alexey Dubov, engineer and entrepreneur turned VC, will discuss what’s actually happening today as startups adopt AI and push for pilots across the industry.
– Today’s Impact: A special guest speaker with a deep AI background (Google DeepMind/Stanford PhD) will reveal what they’re launching now — and how it’s already changing the daily life of construction professionals.
– Alim Uderbekov, CEO & Founder Surfaice.pro, aerospace engineer and serial entrepreneur will moderate this session.
By taking this step-by-step approach across horizons, we’ll explore how AI can unlock massive productivity gains and transform one of the world’s most important industries.
Join us to explore how AI can unlock massive productivity gains in construction and transform one of the world’s most important industries.
