About the Conference
Today’s international business environment is becoming more competitive each day. The property and construction industry, with its highly fragmented project activities and increasingly demanding clients is no exception. Clients Driving Innovation: Moving Ideas into Practice has provided the opportunity to hear and meet world-leading industry practitioners and researchers creating the edge in this highly competitive environment.
Clients Driving Innovation: Moving Ideas into Practice brought together clients, designers, constructors and facility managers from around the world to focus on future opportunities and case studies of ‘clients driving innovation’ in constructed facilities. Moving Ideas into Practice showcased technologies and practices developed by leading practitioners and researchers globally.
The Conference built on the success of our 2004 Conference by focussing on more advanced applications of applied research to improving industry practice. The Conference feature fully refereed papers from researchers supported by practical industry case studies.
