About this event

TECH AND... CONSTRUCTION

Ever wondered how the construction industry got to where it is today? The answer likely lies in tech.

Overview:​ At this exclusive panel event, we host thought-leaders from a specific industry — such as finance, food, or art — to explore new intersections between their field and technology. Together, we discuss how they’ve been impacted by the rise of tech, ways they’ve adapted and innovated along the way, and what they expect to see in the future.

What You’ll Take Away: Technology influences many aspects of the construction industry and is deeply ingrained in all stages. From concept to execution, technology is transforming this antiquated industry through mobile collaboration, drones, wearables, and even virtual reality.

Gain insight and inspiration from experts in the construction field and hear first-hand how technology is transforming their work. Expand your understanding of today’s tech-based world, and fuel your own ideas for the future.

Featured Experts: Hear from experts at Fieldwire and Clark Construction Group discuss how technology is changing the industry of architecture and construction.

Why It Matters: The omnipresence of technology has rapidly transformed lives over the last decade (remember, the iPhone was only released in 2007). Now, it’s rare to go about a regular day without interacting with tech — whether it’s an alarm app that wakes you up, your Nest Thermostat-regulated apartment, or the software you use at work. Staying ahead of the innovation curve and being able to predict the future of tech in various industries has never been more important — both at work and at play.
