Storm Ventures Group Launches First Virtual Reality Training System for Roofing Contractors

Storm Ventures Group (SVG) CEO Anthony Delmedico recently launched the first virtual reality training platform for roofing contractors in the construction and restoration industries.  
 
The Virtual Reality (VR) Goggles provide a 360-degree virtual reality environment and come pre-loaded with an app and several industry-specific courses to help contractors throughout the nation recruit, onboard, and train employees. 
 
According to a study by McKinsey & Company, construction is one of the least digitized sectors in the world, and productivity has remained flat for decades. As one of the world economy’s largest sectors employing over 7 percent of the world’s working-age population with $10 trillion spent on construction-related goods and services every year, studies find it has been difficult for the industry to streamline processes and increase productivity the way manufacturing and retail industries have done successfully.  
 
According to Connect & Construct, the top five trends in construction technology in 2019 include the internet of things, virtual reality, AI and machine learning, predictive analytics, and autonomous equipment.
