Procore Groundbreak 2023 sparks an era of Digital and Cultural Transformation
Procore Technologies, Inc., a leading global provider of construction management software, today is kicking off Groundbreak 2023, the construction industry’s most innovative conference. Every year, Procore brings together thought leaders to build connections, elevate their knowledge and embrace transformation happening across the industry.
“Procore’s mission is to connect everyone in construction on a global platform, and that’s what Groundbreak is all about,” said Tooey Courtemanche, Founder and CEO of Procore. “We’re thrilled to host our ninth annual conference, this year in Chicago, where we’ll celebrate the incredible people in construction and the work they’re doing to transform this industry. Attendees will have an opportunity to hear from inspiring thought leaders, learn from innovative industry experts, and connect with their peers from all over the world.”
Around 4,000 attendees from over 20 countries will gather to discuss new ideas, walk away with actionable insights and be inspired by transformative keynotes from Michael Steep, Laila Ali and Michael Phelps.
Innovations Announced at Groundbreak
During the opening day keynote, Procore will unveil new digital and cultural innovations that help construction professionals attract and retain top talent, improve safety outcomes and meet growing demand.
Over the last year, Procore has made substantial investments in its platform, providing customers with the necessary technology to drive digital transformation within the industry. At the conference, Procore leaders will showcase new updates and enhancements, focusing on key areas such as connecting preconstruction, enabling payments and leveraging artificial intelligence to drive efficiencies.
However, digital solutions won’t transform construction alone.

To champion the community of construction leaders who share a dedication to nurturing thriving workplaces and investing in their people, Procore will reveal new updates to its suite of cultural programs and initiatives.
