Cambridge alumni, friends and guests are warmly invited to our June Lunch Speaker Series for an exclusive discussion on the future of construction through 3D concrete printing, featuring P1LLAR Director Karl Vaitiekunas, Dune Building Technologies Founder Ash Quiddington and Edward Bond, Principal at Robert Bird Group.

Drawing on live project experience, the speakers will explore how automated and robotic construction methods are reshaping the industry through faster delivery, reduced labour demand, minimised waste, improved material performance and expanded design possibilities.

Karl Vaitiekunas is a project management and construction professional with more than 16 years’ experience delivering residential, commercial and infrastructure projects across Victoria. He holds a Master of Construction Management from The University of Melbourne and spent a year as an associate member at St Edmund’s College, Cambridge. His work in modern methods of construction includes current 3D concrete printing applications across townhouse developments in Kensington, a residential project in Portsea, and geothermal plunge pools at Peninsula Hot Springs.
