We sat down with Gabe Fierro, Assistant Professor at the Colorado School of Mines and Co-Founder of the Brick Schema for a free-ranging discussion about how different Metadata Schemas are converging to model buildings! 

We covered how different metadata schemas like Brick Schema and Project Haystack complement rather than compete with one another. Common misconceptions about Open Metadata Schemas. When to use them? And how to actually use these RDF models in practice! 

* Brick Schema - https://brickschema.org/
* Project Haystack - https://project-haystack.org/
* RealEstateCore - https://www.realestatecore.io/
* ASHRAE 223P - https://www.energy.gov/eere/buildings...

#22 How Different Metadata Schemas are Converging to Model Buildings!

For Episode 27, we were joined by Cliff Majersik from the Institute for Market Transformation (https://www.imt.org/), where he helps to shape policy around energy efficiency in buildings.

Will standards really drive wide-scale building decarbonization? And what does that mean for smart building technology? 

Cliff shared his deep knowledge of energy efficiency standards, building ratings and building codes. We discussed Local Law 97 and its impact as a  driver of investment in decarbonizing buildings in the US. And how it compares to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in the EU.

#27 The Building Performance Standards Landscape!

For Episode 29, we were joined by Brahm Lategan, Smart Building Consultant @ MiX based in London.

We dived into the world of Commercial Building Data. Why are data integration problems in commercial buildings so persistent? AND how can we fix them? 

Brahm introduces Unified Namespace (UNS), an architecture from Industrial Automation, as a possible solution. UNS can create a centralized, non-hierarchical structure for real-time data exchange across IT and OT systems.

#29 Why are Building Data Integration Problems so Persistent AND How Can We Fix Them?

For Episode 30, we were joined by Nick Clark and Mike Brooman to discuss Aukett Swanke's recent acquisition of the assets of Vanti.

We discussed the reasons behind the acquisition. It's Aukett Swanke's 4th acquisition within a year and we also discussed their plans to improve the delivery of smart building technology on commercial building projects.

Are AI agents about to transform how our buildings work? In this conversation with smart building expert Elisa Rönkä, we explore how agentic AI could revolutionize the PropTech ecosystem.

This isn't just another AI hype video — it's a practical discussion about how the smart building industry might navigate a huge transformation in technology. We discuss:

* Why agentic AI is fundamentally different from tools like ChatGPT.
* How 70% of SaaS applications could be disrupted by AI agents.
* The end of dashboards as we know them.
* Why implementation costs could plummet, accelerating smart building adoption.
* The coming "agent-human hybrid" workflows that will transform building operations.
