“We partnered with the Liveris Academy to bring the ideas of future generations into how we build and deliver our projects. The UQ students we worked with come from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds, and they brought fresh perspectives and real innovation. Through the program we’ve also been able to offer several of them roles at BESIX Watpac, which I’m really proud of. It’s a great time to be building infrastructure, and with the next generation alongside us, we’re building the best together.”
Mark Baker
Chief Executive Officer, BESIX Watpac“The collaboration between the Liveris Academy and BESIX Watpac through the Stadium Innovation Challenge provided an invaluable opportunity for scholars to build professional skills and gain insight into industry practice. Through regular engagement with leaders in stadium construction and the chance to pitch our ideas to BESIX Watpac’s leadership team, I gained exposure to the realities of problem-solving in a professional environment. Collaborating with industry experts on a real-world challenge allowed me to build valuable creative thinking, pitching, and collaboration skills. Overall, it was an incredibly rewarding experience that provided insights beyond the scope of my university studies.”
