BIM Conference

Now in its fifth year, BIM Salford has established itself as a true industry leader offering “great takeaways from speakers” and “engaging, interesting participants”.

Delegate feedback from our 2018 conference includes:

“The conference provided a good CPD experience with opportunities to appropriately discuss and question content”

“The atmosphere was conducive to progressive thinking and informed discussion”

“Good overall situation of BIM in the UK, good event for networking”

“I learned a lot from different sectors of the industry”

In preparation for our 2019 event, we have engaged with all previous years’ attendees to inform the design of an agenda which will offer maximum benefit to delegates.

Built around real-world examples of BIM adoption and its benefits, this conference will focus on strategies for client education, supply chain engagement to boost uptake, and insight from FM and asset management providers. The only conference to benefit from the University of Salford’s leading research in BIM, the agenda will feature topics including standardisation, team integration and collaboration, and information management and exchange.

Join us at BIM Salford 2019 to benefit from commercial cost and design case studies demonstrating the tangible benefits and drawbacks of BIM. Learn how best to stimulate engagement and education for clients and throughout the supply chain at the only conference built around the University of Salford’s internationally esteemed work in BIM.
