BREAKFAST WITH THE EXPERTS
|
|
|
|
The Breakfast with the Experts at World of Concrete 2025, presented and hosted by Master Builders Solutions, offered attendees a unique opportunity to engage with industry experts in a relaxed, intimate setting. Participants had the chance to engage in open dialogue and ask the experts questions about various topics, including AI and the integration of new technology in the construction industry. The breakfast provided interactive learning and valuable insights.
Matthew Case, Senior Project Manager at JCP Construction, remarked, "Typically, we've been slower to adapt to digitalization. But now, as we look at publications and news articles, we're hearing about AI everywhere and we're seeing its impact in construction as well." He further explained, "The product we use to manage all the information coming in is called Master Atlas, which features AI functionalities. It helps our producers consolidate all the data they handle continuously into one accessible location and make it usable."
If you're interested, there's still time to sign up for one of these breakfast events!
