Building Smarter: How AI & emerging technologies are transforming construction in British Columbia
About this Event

Across BC, tools such as artificial intelligence, digital twins, automation, and advanced data analytics are changing how we plan, design, build, and maintain infrastructure. These technologies promise improvements in safety, efficiency, and sustainability — but they also raise important questions about workforce impacts, ethics, environmental responsibility, and accountability. This panel will explore not just what technology can do, but how we choose to use it — and what that means for the future of our industry and the people who work in it.

Panelists:

1) Eliza Simon: Site Superintendent, EllisDon

2) Wendy MacDonald, P.Eng, ENV SP, LEED AP BD+C: Sustainability Consultant, Read Jones Christoffersen Ltd.

3) Ritu Ahuja: Director of Lean Integration, Kinetic

Location: Michele Pujol Room at the University of Victoria, inside the Student Union Building
