On 17 March 2021, the Global BIM Summit brought together public sector representatives and investors to discuss the national and regional BIM initiatives that are accelerating the digital transformation of the sector. We discuss the opportunity that digitalization presents for governments and industry; and how we can collaborate as a Global Network to foster inclusive growth and drive shared benefits from an open digital construction sector.
At the Global BIM Summit, public sector and multi-lateral representatives leading BIM initiatives across the world came together to discuss global convergence and collaboration. Find out more about our speakers here.
