Against the backdrop of the Innovation Industry Construction Congress (IC2), which is bringing together more than 500 international experts this week at the Palacio de la Magdalena in Santander, FCC Construcción has cemented its position at the forefront of innovation and transformation within the infrastructure sector. 

Organised by the Spanish Construction Technology Platform (PTEC) and the University of Cantabria, the IC2 congress has emerged as the leading international forum for addressing the industry’s most pressing challenges: digitalisation, artificial intelligence, industrialisation and the circular economy.

Measure better to build better As a sponsor of the event, FCC Construcción has highlighted the need to genuinely integrate advanced technological solutions into the construction cycle to ensure true climate resilience. The transformation of the construction sector hinges on measuring better to build better. Rigorous measurement of environmental impact is the essential starting point for ensuring truly sustainable and, at the same time, more productive infrastructure.

Through the development of its own data management tools, the company is sharing its success stories and methodologies at this sectoral forum to mitigate the carbon footprint, optimise resource use and accelerate digitalisation that brings greater efficiency to civil engineering and building works in real time.

An ecosystem of sectoral collaboration FCC Construcción’s participation in the IC2 reinforces its active commitment to the innovation ecosystem and its long-standing partnership with the PTEC, working hand in hand with engineering firms, universities and technology partners to anticipate the trends that will redefine the sector’s rules in the short and medium term.
