Summit

Information

Turn AI promise into measurable green building results. This full-day summit sponsored by Autodesk, highlights real-world AI use cases across design, construction, and operations, as well as the enabling conditions that determine success—data quality, interoperability, workflow changes, and lifecycle continuity.

Learn how to assess investment tradeoffs, verify outcomes, and scale adoption responsibly to support sustained high-performance building delivery and operations.

Learning Objective #1

Identify the AI solutions landscape for AECO—and where it actually moves sustainable performance. Clarify what’s working today across design, construction, and operations; separate high-value applications from hype; understand what’s mature vs. emerging.

Learning Objective #2

Evaluate where AI creates net-positive value—and what it takes to achieve it. Apply an “Invest for Impact” lens to weigh benefits against the real requirements: data readiness, integration, workflow redesign, role shifts, training/reskilling, and maintenance.

Learning Objective #3

Identify the practical barriers—and enabling conditions—that determine whether AI can scale lifecycle-wide. Understand common blockers (data gaps, fragmented tools, weak handover, unclear accountability, misaligned workflows) and the patterns that overcome them through integration and continuity.

Learning Objective #4

Build a practical approach to define success, validate outcomes, and scale responsibly. Learn how teams set success criteria, choose metrics, verify results, and manage implementation risk with human-in-the-loop safeguards, transparency, procurement alignment, and data/cyber practices.
