Search every verified Manuel Liedot interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. Manuel Liedot, CEO of Graitec, has described the company as a global player in construction software with approximately 700 employees across 14 countries and around 300 million euros in revenue. He stated that following the 2022 acquisition of Applied Software in the U.S., about 50% of the company’s business is in North America and 50% in Europe, with less than 10% of revenue coming from France. Liedot said Graitec is an Autodesk Platinum partner and that its mission is to help construction professionals digitize and industrialize processes to build with less environmental impact. He noted that the company is investing in the steel industry and plans to release a new version of PowerPack for Advanced Steel in 2024. Liedot has also spoken about his personal history with the company, saying he joined Graitec shortly after co-developing the structural analysis software Arche in the early 1990s. He described himself as a defender of the "right to fail" as long as there is commitment and effort, and compared Graitec’s trajectory to a relay race and a second half of a match where the team is "boosted" and aims to achieve multiples of past performance. He cited the 1998 FIFA World Cup victory as a memorable sporting moment and named Yannick Noah as a coaching inspiration for his ability to instill engagement and a will to succeed.
