Are you a startup entrepreneur with a background in construction? Or working on a fundamental technology, curious how it could support a construction use case? The Hilti Group can help your breakthrough for construction technology to go global.
Although the Hilti Group is perhaps best known for power tools, today we deliver solutions for all phases of building procurement. Our customers include Architects, Engineers, Specifiers, Tradesmen, Project Managers, Building Owners and Facility Managers. Their jobs are being transformed by construction tech integration, often thanks to inventive startups. If you have thought of a way to help the construction industry overcome tomorrow's challenges, we want to hear from you.
In short: we are looking to form a partnership of equals. You don't need to have construction sector use cases in mind already – we are interested in the underlying technologies as much as their application to our industry.
