This year's theme, "The Rise of Artificial Intelligence in Construction Project Management," promises to open doors to a future where technology and human expertise converge for exceptional outcomes.

In a world rapidly embracing AI, the construction industry too is seizing its advantages. The event's theme highlights the growing importance of AI in construction project management.

From predictive analytics optimizing project timelines to AI-driven risk assessments enhancing decision-making, the event will explore how technology is propelling the industry towards heightened efficiency, sustainability, and excellence.

HBP International Project Management Day 2023 brings together thought leaders, industry professionals, students, and educators to delve into the transformative potential of AI in construction.

The event is tailored to be inclusive and insightful, featuring four engaging talk sessions and an invigorating competition focusing on a Request for Proposal (RFP) scenario.

Participants will be challenged to craft a multidimensions Building Information Modeling (BIM) model for a cutting-edge green building situated in the picturesque Taman Rekreasi Universiti (TRU) Land at USM.
