I think it’s really a must-attend event for CX professionals. I’ve gone to other events in the past and this surpasses all of them.
Business Value of Sustainability for The AEC Industry
Sustainability Dinner Series – Dubai
at Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah
24th May 2023,
18:00 - 20:30 GST,
Successfully Held
Here’s what we discussed:
The Architectural Engineering and Construction industry has a big role to play in combating climate change in a global market increasingly hungry for sustainable solutions.
Few challenges are as complex as delivering high-performing, net zero, and resilient buildings and infrastructure at scale. There are tremendous opportunities for AEC firms to lead this transformation with tools and processes that quantify and optimize the total carbon impact on the built environment.
With the increased focus on sustainable design, construction, and operations approaches due to the upcoming COP28 in November, during this dinner session, we heard how AECO Executives are preparing for their sustainability strategy, the role digitization plays in their efforts, and how they have overcome challenges /change management hurdles.

Talk To Us About Attending Future Events
Here’s what attendees at past events have said:
A lot of other conferences I’ve gone to are driven off a podium, someone presenting me a solution before they understand my problem. Here I have an opportunity to talk to my peers and learn from them.
I’m not part of some enormous crowd out there. I’m getting lot of interaction, hearing from people, their own personal stories. Individual examples of how people are leveraging their CX skills in their industry, in their business, in the work that they do everyday.
Very intimate, Very one-on-one! You are able to really get a lot of candid responses, so we’re getting a ton of value from that and a lot of valuable insights.
