Digital construction experts at Futurebuild 2020

Our experts in the field of data and technology will be attending Futurebuild as stand hosts and guest speakers so please do come and say hello if you’re attending. You can find Sir Robert McAlpine within the Digital Impact area: Stand C79.

Futurebuild is the built environment event where brands of all sizes come together to share innovations, from products, to processes and solutions, with over 27,000 industry influencers and shapers attending.

Digital impact at Futurebuild has been created to impart knowledge onto industry professionals to help them better understand just what digital construction is and the purpose it serves.

Within this area are two stages: centre stage and impact stage, both of which have been carefully crafted to allow industry leading speakers to prepare their audiences for the digital future, by exploring opportunities and also the implications of these rapidly advancing technologies and how to connect to a global digital ecosystem, that is shaping the future of construction and designed to help us overcome industry challenges.

Our Sir Robert McAlpine colleagues highlighted below join the stellar list of speakers on the Digital Impact Stage.
