À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE

Autodesk now runs from the first sketch to the maintenance ticket.

So who is left to compete?

We got back from Autodesk University and put that question to three people this week:

  • Connor Watumull on Miter's $40M Series B, and why payroll was the way into the whole contractor back office.

  • Lea Scherer on Kuro's €10M seed, and how a two year old startup ended up working with Goldbeck and Hochtief Infrastructure.

  • Alain Waha, CTO of Buro Happold, on why AI could push software bills up from here.
