In this brief interview, Pradeep asks Speaker B about the next steps in their Indian transformation initiative. Speaker B outlines a strategic focus on moving technology—particularly BIM 360—from the design office to the construction site to improve safety, enable modular and simulated construction, and foster collaboration between white‑collar and blue‑collar workers. Over the next 24 months they plan to embed safety‑centric digital tools across power plants, steel plants, and building projects, creating a broader ecosystem that leverages Autodesk’s civil and infrastructure suite to deliver safer, more efficient projects. The conversation emphasizes safety as the primary driver of innovation and signals a commitment to showcase these advances on stage next year.

about. Great to see the wonderful work that you're doing. Just before you, before you go off, just wanted to, wanted to give us a glimpse of what's next. I mean, what's the future look like if we, you know, when we have you next year on stage? I'm committing you to that right now. But what does, what, what does the awesome stuff that we could expect to see next year, what's, what's the future for you?
So Pradeep, apart from being part of the entire Indian transformation story, touching the lives of every person in India from every strata of society to make smarter cities, skill building. Truly, we are looking at extending technology and its leverage from the design to the site. Okay. Can we simulate construction better? Can we create modular designs such that it's safer to handle? So safety is going to be a big thrust and we want to take the technology on our sites where we have our white collar and blue collar working together in a safe environment. And I know you guys are helping us, but it requires a wider ecosystem to understand what technology can bring to every site. Safety in India is a big, big issue, and we want to make sure that as part of our commitment of safe workplace, every site that we perform our project— power plants, steel plants, buildings, we can have safety embedded in them. And so we're going to leverage much of your technology over the next 24 months to make safer sites and safer construction techniques. And hopefully we'll talk about that next year.
So moving design out from the design shop, right, down to the construction floor in the field, that's where you look to see innovation. And especially, I mean, this is a unique angle that you're trying to do, which is focus on safety as a way to make that happen.
Correct. I mean, one of the technologies that is unique, BIM 360, We're trying to see when we say concept to commissioning in this entire chain from design to safe construction, you want to leverage all your fantastic civil and infrastructure suite of products with BIM 360 to make projects successful in a safe manner.
Excellent, look forward to that.
Thank you, thank you very much. Thank you so much, Amit.
