✨ Joint Institutes, Cross Disciplines and One Future : Data Technology in Construction Industry! 🌐
On 24 July, HKIS Building Surveying Division (BSD) was proud to co-organise the highly successful Joint Institutional and Cross-Disciplines Discussion Forum: "How Data Technology applies in Construction Industry" at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University!
This impactful forum brought together an exceptional coalition of co-organisers:
• The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS BSD)
• Hong Kong Institute of Construction Managers - HKICM
• Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)
• HK PolyU - Department of Construction Management and Intelligence (CMI)
• PolyU BREDDA
We were incredibly encouraged by the overwhelming cross-industry response, gathering over 100 professionals in person and more than 700 online registrants!
A sincere thank you to our distinguished guest, Prof. Esther Yung, moderator Sr Ivy Lam (Director at Ankura), and our stellar panel of expert speakers: Ir Dr Derrick Pang, JP (CEO of Asia Allied Infrastructure), Mr. Xiangrui Kong (Managing Director at Ankura), and Ir Terence Lui (Founder & CEO of Varadise).
Their diverse, multi-disciplinary insights on operational efficiency, data sharing, and cybersecurity truly highlighted how emerging tech is reshaping the future of building surveying and the broader construction ecosystem.
Finally, a massive shoutout to the organising committee, dedicated volunteers, and supporting teams who worked seamlessly behind the scenes to make this major joint event a resounding success!
