The Reincarnate consortium gathered in Warsaw on 9–10 October 2025 for its seventh General Assembly, hosted by Mostostal Warszawa. Over two days, partners shared technical progress, aligned strategies for demonstration and validation, and strengthened collaboration across innovation, integration, and communication. The discussions confirmed how Reincarnate’s digital tools and pilot activities are converging into a coherent framework for circular construction, ready for replication and scaling in the project’s final phase.
Day 1 – Demonstration, Integration & Business Processes
The session on demonstration activities, presented by Benjamí Moreno Torres (TU Berlin), offered a detailed picture of how the ten Reincarnate innovations are now applied across pilot sites in Europe and beyond. The update highlighted measurable progress in modular dismantling, valuation of recycled materials, and BIM-supported planning, while noting practical hurdles such as administrative delays, fragmented data flows, and regulatory complexity.
A key technical block focused on the Circular Potential Information Model (CP-IM). The presentations described its role as a unifying digital backbone that centralises building data, links IoT inputs and 3D models, and supports decision-making through lifecycle analysis. Development now targets full interoperability with external tools and testing in pilot environments. The same session introduced a concept for a digital platform where architects, suppliers, and project managers can plan and verify upgraded building products within a shared environment.
Architectural Design Methods from TU Berlin added a design-oriented perspective. The team presented a parametric modelling approach that links reused components from demolition or secondary marketplaces directly into BIM environments.
Training progress was presented through the Moodle courses prepared by PLGBC. Each innovation now features dedicated learning modules, videos, glossaries, and interactive assignments, turning project outputs into practical capacity-building resources for professionals. Plan B introduced the new Business Process Maps for reuse-centred digital workflows. The deliverable structures the ten innovations within a six-phase, gate-based model that clarifies how data and decisions flow through the circular process. It serves both as a reference for the ongoing pilots and as a foundation for upcoming training and standardisation.
The traditional Reincarnate Innovation Pitches brought the day to a close – a lively and creative session where partners showcased their latest ideas and progress, capturing the project’s collaborative spirit. Timo Hartmann (TU Berlin) was selected as the winner thanks to its pitch on how interconnection brings value,, before the group gathered for the evening’s social programme.
Day 2 – Digital Integration & Strategic Outlook
The second day opened with the Technical Board Meeting, setting priorities for integration and validation across the demonstration sites. It continued with a series of technical presentations dedicated to digital integration and data coordination within the CP-IM framework.
Mainflux (MFX) presented the ongoing Digital Twin integration, outlining progress on linking data flows between pilots and the central CP-IM model. HUST contributed with insights on on-site waste assessment and separation, detailing how site-level data are incorporated into the platform to improve material traceability.
Further integration progress was shown through the work on SLAMD, presented by Ghezal Ahmad Zia and Sabine Kruschwitz (BAM). Their update demonstrated how AI-based optimisation for concrete design connects with CP-IM, allowing producers to reduce cement content, increase recycled aggregate use, and cut emissions. The presentation detailed the API-driven architecture, integration planning, and first validation with industrial partners such as CEMEX and Ragn-Sells
Up next, Mainflux and 3L presented the Digital Twin 3L Office Building, showing how the digital twin environment supports lifecycle monitoring and information exchange between systems.
The day ended with sessions on dissemination, exploitation, and risk management. AUSTRALO presented the dissemination and communication update, reviewing achievements and defining next steps to strengthen visibility and ensure impact as Reincarnate enters its final phase.
The Warsaw assembly marked the transition into the final phase of Reincarnate. As the consortium prepares to consolidate results and validate its digital tools across the demonstration sites, the project’s direction is now clearly toward completion and replication.
