About the session

This session will explore a number of the bigger ideas and concepts explored at Digital Construction Week and how they may stand to shape the future of the built environment. Autonomous vehicles, circular economy, materials, basic income, etc. and the influence they (could) have on our sector. The session will draw comparisons between designing building and products and man-machine collaboration. This enlightening keynote will help you ask what the big topics could mean for your business (parallel to incremental innovation) and offer the view that, in order to achieve the best results, we have to collaborate and integrate these activities.
