AIBC Conference 2022 | View to the Future
The AIBC is delighted to announce the theme for 2022: View to the Future!
Looking ahead with purpose requires acknowledging where you are, at the current point in time. Whether planning a design, envisioning an idea, or contemplating “what’s next?”, it is critical to pause and reflect, to have a view to the future. It is not simply about moving forward, but also learning from the past to build a better tomorrow.
Much has changed in the world: now more than ever, it is imperative to keep current with technological and industrial innovation, and be responsive to professional and societal expectations. Through the lens of “View to the Future”, AIBC Conference 2022 will explore these transformations and discuss the latest sustainable technologies, policies, design innovations, and the pertinent matters influencing architectural practice.
- Date: Monday, May 2 to Wednesday, May 4, 2022
