Construction Tech Keynote Speaker: AI, ConTech & Project Efficiency
Leveraging AI and smart site technology to streamline project management, reduce labor costs, and secure digital infrastructure on the job site.
Construction Tech Keynote Speaker: Building the Future with AI, Automation, and Digital Safety
On the modern job site, a data breach can be just as devastating as a structural failure. As the 'Human Tech Expert,' Burton Kelso helps construction leaders and skilled trades navigate the complex intersection of 'boots on the ground' and 'bits in the cloud.' Move beyond the overwhelm of new software and discover a practical roadmap to secure your firm’s 'Digital Gold,' automate your estimating process, and master the AI tools of 2026. Burton delivers the jargon-free insights needed to increase your project margins and protect your business, ensuring that technology serves your crew rather than slowing them down.
Why Book Burton for Your Next Construction Expo or Trade Association Meeting?
The "Labor Gap" & AI Efficiency:
With fewer workers entering the trades, you have to do more with less. I demonstrate how Agentic AI can handle scheduling, materials tracking, and client communication, allowing your best people to stay focused on the build.
Securing the "Digital Gold" of Bids & Blueprints:
Contractors are prime targets for wire fraud and IP theft. I provide non-technical training to help your office and field staff protect sensitive project data and prevent the "business-killing" email scams that target the industry.
The Tech Adoption Resistance:
Many veteran tradespeople are skeptical of "new gadgets." I bridge the generational gap, showing crews how mobile tech and AI can actually make their jobs easier, safer, and less frustrating.
Managing Subcontractors in a Digital World:
Coordination is the #1 cause of delays. I teach leaders how to use 2026 collaborative tools to ensure every sub, vendor, and inspector is on the same page, reducing costly rework and communication errors.
Digital Wellness for the High-Stakes Job Site:
The "always-on" nature of project management leads to burnout. I share strategies for using technology to create efficiency, not just more work, helping your leadership team maintain focus and physical safety.

Accounting Professionals All Over the Country Love hearing Burton speak about Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cyber Security, and Social Media Marketing!
