Lobbyist Wars and the Development of BIM. Part 5: BlackRock is the master of all technology. How corporations control Open source

Tech giants use investment fund money to control an increasing proportion of new developers and products, thus blocking the path for new programs and new technologies in the construction industry. 





Today's leaders in the CAD industry - Autodesk, Hexagon, Nemetschek, Bentley, Trimble - are well prepared for future threats: the standard tactic of large corporations is to aggressively capture new markets and take over potential competitors in the early stages of development. 





As a result, the entire CAD industry has become an oligopoly dominated by a group of several companies. And their position at the top is becoming more and more unshakable.
