CIF DIGITAL CONSTRUCTION SUMMIT 2025
BUILDING SMARTER: REDEFINING THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION

Croke Park, Dublin
BUILDING SMARTER: REDEFINING THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION
The construction industry is undergoing a major transformative shift in terms of the landscape in which it operates. This is being driven by digital innovation and technological advancements, an evolving complex regulatory environment particularly around sustainability, and the increasing use of offsite manufacturing and new leaner ways of working. Productivity remains to the fore with construction continuing to be one of the least digitalised sectors in the broader economy globally due to its complexity. This signifies the great change that will impact the industry over the coming years as the industry evolves. Now is a time of immense opportunity for leaders in the industry to compete on a different scale particularly for early adopters. However, with great change comes risks; some of which may be inconceivable at this point but yet have to be somehow considered. Also of major relevance is that as the industry adapts, the core challenges are not just the availability and use of technology, but also the profound behavioural shift within organisations and across the construction supply chain.
Hear from expert speakers on a range of topics including why a robust cybersecurity policy is essential for protecting your digital assets and maintaining operational continuity; how AI is revolutionising how projects are designed, managed, and built by enhancing productivity, reducing costs, and improving safety. The agenda will provide a comprehensive exploration of digital construction in Ireland, offering both strategic insights and practical solutions for leaders and stakeholders across the sector.
The 2025 Digital Construction Summit will bring together Ireland’s leading CEOs, thought leaders, and digital adoption champions. It will focus on how Ireland’s construction industry must embrace smart construction, offsite manufacturing, digital technology and innovation to address persistent challenges such as efficiency, productivity, and sustainability.
So join us on 21 October 2025 to hear lively panel discussions, inspiring case studies, burning fireside chats on Ireland’s vibrant digital construction sector, how to increase productivity and improve efficiencies for your business, and to connect with brands, organisations, suppliers and key industry buyer
