Despite being adopted only recently, Industry 5.0 has already attracted significant attention from researchers in various fields. However, the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Management, Operation, and Conservation (AECMO&C) industry, particularly in the context of built cultural heritage conservation, has been left behind. Thus, the aim of this work is to better understand the perceptions of conservation professionals regarding the adoption of Industry 5.0 principles and enabling technologies, the perceived barriers and needed skills to overcome them. A survey questionnaire has been designed, tested, and implemented. After analysing and discussing the information collected, it has been concluded that while there is a clear recognition of the importance of Industry 5.0 principles and enabling technologies, their adoption in built cultural heritage conservation remains limited. Future efforts should focus on bridging knowledge gaps, enhancing training, and securing resources to overcome existing barriers.
