Introduction
In the wake of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the CIF DIGICON Summit 2020 is going virtual. This year’s summit, which will be web-based, will be the ideal vehicle for the construction industry to collaborate, learn, network virtually and debate the pressing issues facing the sector at large during this challenging time. The underlying theme concerns how the latest technologies and digitization of the industry can fastrack recovery.

Virtual sessions, panels and roundtables will focus on how key stakeholders can better collaborate to create a more profitable, sustainable and efficient industry via digital technology in the near future. The summit will delve into the latest technologies and digitization of processes within the construction industry and it will provide deeper insights into key issues, such as project management, new models for delivery, VDC Technology, big data in construction and the road towards BIM 3 in virtual construction.

The summit will offer an excellent opportunity to learn more about recent technology advances and to hear about challenges faced in complex construction projects from industry-leading inspirational speakers based both in Ireland and abroad.

The CIF’s Digital Construction Summit 2020 will bring together a virtual gathering of developers, planners, architects, engineers, contractors, material and solution providers, and other key stakeholders pivotal in the construction supply chain to explore best strategies and solutions to embrace digital transformation for a more productive and profitable future…
