The future of development is digital — but that means far more than adopting better software. Integrated data, digital twins, and AI-enabled assets and systems are reshaping how the built environment is designed, delivered, managed, and operated. This shift is giving owners, designers, and contractors new ways to manage complexity, analyze cost, accelerate delivery, and create long-term asset value. Drawing on practical examples, this conversation will explore how digital foundations laid early can unlock benefits across the full project lifecycle. Examples will include AI generative concept design, smart building operations, and digital twins for design and construction.
