Global Sources Building & Construction Online Show 2023 | Building & Construction Product Discovery
The building and construction industry is, according to research by McKinsey, the largest industry in the world, accounting for 13 percent of global GDP. Construction – valued at $12.74 trillion in 2022 by Expert Market Research – is an evolving industry. Its percentage share of the world economy is forecast to increase.
According to industry experts, certain trends that have emerged in recent years, particularly after the pandemic, are expected to quicken the pace of the construction industry. Among these trends are:
• Advanced and More Efficient Technologies: The construction industry is improving its efficiency through technology to reduce costs and improve productivity. It is likewise adopting advanced technologies such as construction software, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI) to automate and accelerate operations.
• Green Construction: The industry is moving towards more healthy and sustainable solutions that combat global warming and other worrying challenges.
• Improved Collaboration: Construction teams are employing new technologies to improve collaboration and communication between different teams and stakeholders.
• Smart and High-Tech Protective Equipment: The use of advanced protection gear is becoming more common in the construction industry.
• Autonomous Machinery and Wearables: Autonomous machinery and wearable technologies (such as smart helmets that monitor the fatigue levels of workers) are becoming more common in the construction industry, allowing for greater efficiency and safety.
• Living Building Materials: A radical new trend in the construction industry, which involves using materials that are alive and can grow, such as bacteria and fungi.
These trends are expected to improve productivity, reduce costs, and promote sustainability in the industry – transforming it from a slow-growth industry into a high-performing one.
Professionals in the construction industry need to keep abreast of these trends to help their companies stay ahead of the game as well as to meet the evolving needs and expectations of their clients.
One way for building and construction professionals to stay up to date with the latest technologies and trends, as well as to network with industry colleagues, is to attend construction trade shows. Fortunately for the industry, these can’t-miss events are no longer limited to in-person exhibitions that entail booking flights and accommodation.
Trade show veteran organizer Global Sources has come up with a building and construction online show that industry professionals can attend from the comfort of their offices or even homes, with just an Internet-enabled device.
