Last week, I enjoyed attending my first Digital Construction Week in London, a premier event showcasing the latest trends and innovations in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. The event highlighted the critical role of digital transformation in shaping the future of the industry. It was an incredible opportunity to hear from leaders about sustainable building practices, integrating AI in construction, practical advice on selecting new software, and strategies for managing your carbon footprint after measurement, among many other topics. Additionally, I connected with suppliers and experienced cutting-edge technologies that support the industry through innovative software solutions. My key takeaways included the importance of sustainability, the increasing reliance on data analytics for decision-making, and the transformative potential of emerging technologies to have your needs in one place. Also, with many different software packages on the market, it's crucial to plan ahead for any new transformation or adoption of technologies to avoid unexpected results. Did you attend?
