Oxford Economics forecasts that the global volume of construction work is expected to increase by US$4.2 trillion over the next 15 years, bolstered by the burgeoning green economy. China is expected to witness a resurgence in its construction sector from 2025 onwards, while the United States contends with a $150 billion shortfall in housing. Meanwhile, India is on track to become the fastest-growing construction behemoth globally, with the United Kingdom leading the pace in Western Europe.

The industry stands at a pivotal junction, marked by a technological renaissance and environmental imperatives. Sustainable development is surging, with advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and robotics increasingly integrated into construction practices. These advancements, along with a concerted effort towards infrastructure modernization, are steering the sector toward an era of unprecedented growth and change.This evolution is in sync with the global imperative to build sustainable, efficient, and intelligent urban environments, amidst the challenges of urbanization and climate change.

This year’s conference offers a critical platform for industry professionals to learn from global thought leaders about adapting to emerging sustainability standards, comprehending the newest eco-friendly construction trends and technologies, deliberating over strategies to surmount sector-specific obstacles and inventive solutions, and to facilitate cross-regional industry collaboration. It's a unique opportunity for networking, knowledge-sharing, and partnering with industry peers worldwide, enabling industry professionals to remain at the forefront of innovation and contribute to a more sustainable and technologically advanced future in the built environment.
