Achieving digital transformation in construction – where are we going and how do we get there?
18 March, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am
The Made Smarter Review in 2017 identified the construction industry as a key sector with £89.2 billion of value over the next ten years through the adoption of currently known digital technologies. Industrial digitalisation is a massive opportunity for UK industry and the wider economy. But the technologies that underpin it are also highly disruptive, requiring business to be innovative, agile and adaptable. Our speakers will explore how we are progressing and how transformation can be achieved.
