Athena Programs

We have launched a large research program focused initially on the commercial new-build and ongoing building market in North America. Learn More. We investigate:
  • Market sizing and projections for major innovation areas - where are the opportunities geographically, in which vertical industries, and across which product/service sets, etc.
  • Adoption patterns and issues - who is adopting, who isn't, what does the buying process look like, etc.
  • Innovation pipeline - what is best of breed, state of the art, and on its way to adoption during the next 18 months
  • Industry dynamics - how are key players, regulations, and larger trends shaping the marketplace
  • Case studies - examples of buildings and approaches that we think are brilliant
