68 Min 50 Sec
"Gelernt habe ich gar nichts", bekennt Thomas Hagedorn direkt zum Beginn dieser OMR Podcast-Episode. Dafür ist die Zwischenbilanz des 53-Jährigen beachtlich. Sein 1997 mit einem Bagger gegründetes Unternehmen setzt mittlerweile über eine halbe Milliarde Euro um, beschäftigt mehr als 2000 Menschen und ist von einem Abbruchunternehmen zu einem Rundum-Dienstleister der Baubranche herangewachsen. Mit Schüttflix und Brownfield24 betreibt die Hagedorn Gruppe zwei innovative Plattformen, um die Digitalisierung der Baubranche voranzutreiben. Noch wichtiger ist aber die Vision des Unternehmers: Rückbauprozesse und Recyclingquoten so zu optimieren, dass für Neubauten keine neuen Flächen und weniger neue Baustoffe benötigt werden.
