Barbara explores how technology is reshaping industries and communities — starting with one of the world’s most pressing needs: housing. Mikael Hedberg, a shipbuilder’s son, is reimagining home construction as the founder and CEO of ADMARES with robotic precision and modular design, promising abundant, affordable homes built with dramatically less waste. Siemens’ Eryn Devola shows how digitalization and automation can turn factories into engines of sustainability, cutting emissions while boosting productivity and profitability. Together, they reveal how scaling today’s technologies faster can unlock a future where industry builds not just products, but resilience, opportunity, and a better quality of life.
