Construct Innovate has been supporting innovation and collaboration in the construction industry by funding industry-led projects through Seed Fund Calls.
Following the success of its first Seed Fund Call in 2023, Construct Innovate’s second Seed Fund Call attracted many collaborative and impactful project proposals in 2024. There was a significant increase in applications received compared to 2023, which shows the increased engagement the industry is having with Construct Innovate and the value it can bring to construction sector organisations. A total of 18 project proposals have been approved for funding in the latest Seed Fund Call, totalling over €1.1m in funding committed by the Centre through this Seed Fund Call.
The focus of these projects are wide-ranging and reflect challenges the industry is facing around productivity, quality, safety and sustainability, as well as opportunities for collaboration. A brief description of each project funded under the call is available on the Construct Innovate website. The outcomes of each project will be published and available through Construct Innovate as the projects complete.
