In July 2020, I participated in my first virtual conference (as a result of the COVID pandemic) and was lucky to be selected as a panelist for two sessions:
- “The Future of BIM: Can We Ever Move the Needle to Transition the Entire Industry to Contract with BIM?”
- Nathan Wood, Executive Director, Construction Progress Coalition (Moderator)
- Kristopher Dane, VP & Director of Digital Design, Thornton Tomasetti
- Josh Molitor, National Director of VDC, McCarthy Building Companies
- Alice Santman, Owner & Designer, BIM to FM
- “Which Trends Are Turning Heads Among Academics, Investors & the Industry That We Should Be Ready for in 2020 & Beyond?”
- Nick Cameron, Director of Digital Practice, Perkins & Will (Moderator)
- Kristopher Dane, VP & Director of Digital Design, Thornton Tomasetti
- Dave Burns, Director of Innovation & Field Applications, McCarthy Building Companies
- Lori Peery, Construction Technology Manager, Joeris General Contractors
- Maria Aiolova, Americas Arup University Leader, Associate Principal, Arup
The discussions were great and the platform for the conference was unique.
