Autodesk Workshop

In-person Event | 20 September 2022, 10:00 am (EGYPT)

With the pace of digital transformation increasing every day, along with the costs to maintain aging infrastructure, the pressure for building owners to streamline processes and maximize assets has never been higher. Making the best of disjointed analog systems is no longer an option. Owners must take control of their data and unlock true end-to-end project visibility through a connected data environment in the cloud. Leveraging data across teams and project phases powers better decision-making and more predictable and profitable outcomes.

Join this event to learn how project owners can:

  • Connect teams – Improve project handover through collaboration
  • Manage risks – Identify and manage risks via accurate forecasting
  • Save costs – Reduce redundancy and increase revenue
  • Schedule savings – Streamline processes and avoid costly delays
  • Improve asset performance- Maximize value throughout the entire building lifecycle
