The Puget Sound & South Sound CFMA chapters invite you to join us for a special joint event -  Designing an AI-Enabled Business for the Architecture/Engineering/Construction (AEC) Industry.

Artificial Intelligence is already redefining how construction companies work. According to Environmental Financial Consulting Group (EFCG), for long-term success construction companies need to use AI to both reduce their costs and create new revenue opportunities. However, most business leaders are uncertain how to move forward to accomplish either one. In this presentation, Trent Gillespie will share his insights on AI, his experience helping companies in our industry and others successfully adopt it, and give actionable instruction for how to create a safe and successful AI-enabled business.

Attendees will leave the presentation with:  

• An understanding of what AI is and the impact to the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, with a focus on Construction
• An actionable understanding of how to successfully approach AI in their businesses, regardless of size
• Motivation and Inspiration to get started in adopting AI
