TECH Rize LA: Thriving in Digital Transformation
Extraordinary times call for extraordinary leadership. We’re standing at the crossroads of a tech super cycle that’s rewriting the playbook across industries. Artificial Intelligence, the ecosystem of connected things, biotechnology and a wave of digital innovation are accelerating change at an unprecedented pace, offering solutions that are nothing short of transformation. These tools are not just enhancing what we do—they’re transforming the essence of our work.
With so much focus on the future horizon, you might wonder how we can tackle today’s pressing challenges —intensifying costs, resource shortages, and climate action—while rising to meet this moment of unprecedented change.
This conference will bring together AECO industry leaders to drive the dialogue on lifecycle strategies for thriving in digital transformation, highlighting practical applications of emerging technologies and underscoring the essential role of fully harnessing BIM’s potential.
