Straight from Silicon Valley, Sean Parham has spent nearly his entire career in the tech and telecom worlds, from Motorola to Cisco to launching his own startups.
Last July, he joined the executive team of one of the AEC industry’s hottest tech-focused startups: Aditazz.
As VP of Product Marketing and Management, Parham is leading the firm’s charge in shaking up the traditional design and construction approaches.
The firm’s goal is to simplify and improve what is an inherently complex and messy process by adapting technologies and methodologies from the semiconductor and software development worlds.
In this 15-minute talk at BD+C’s Accelerate Live! conference (May 11, 2017, Chicago), Parham takes us through the "Aditazz way" for automating traditional AEC practices.
