About this listen

In this episode of Lifts & Leaders – the official podcast of interlift – we speak with Alessandro Pilone, Co-Founder and CEO of Skanio, a Finland-based startup on a mission to digitize the elevator industry through digital twins of buildings and lifts. After more than 25 years in elevator R&D across Europe, China and the US, Alessandro decided to step out of traditional industry roles and build a new approach to modernization. With Skanio, he focuses on digitally surveying buildings, creating accurate 3D models and using data, AI and machine learning to plan safer, faster and more sustainable elevator upgrades. We talk about: - why skills shortages and aging buildings demand new digital tools, - how Skanio creates digital twins from real on-site surveys, - moving the industry from 2D drawings to 3D, data-driven planning, - using AI to identify components, materials and spare parts, - sustainability through reuse, recycling and smarter modernization, - and why elevators must become part of future smart cities. A forward-looking conversation about changing mindsets, scaling innovation and bringing the elevator industry into the digital age.
