CAD and BIM have long served as the foundational design and construction documentation —but their utility often ends at project handoff. What if it didn’t? Indoor GIS is a floor-aware system of record for visualizing, analyzing, and managing facilities and collection of buildings. This session will demonstrate how to extend the life of CAD and BIM data into an indoor GIS, and empower CAD, BIM and GIS practitioners to build a Digital Workplace for building operations. Learn about the role of CAD and BIM integrations with GIS to fuel these workflows. See how to import design data into ArcGIS Indoors to map assets and manage spaces, enable real-time navigation with ArcGIS IPS, and equip facilities’ staff with mobile tools for asset inspections and maintenance. Whether new to GIS or looking to modernize facility operations workflows, this session provides you with guidance and examples to convert CAD and BIM data into Digital Workplaces that support asset and space management.

We will focus on the NVIDDIA GB10 for AI at the edge use cases in industry verticals.

Discover how simulation and AI are transforming engineering in the built environment. This session explores how simulation-generated data powers AI, how digital engineering practices enable scale, and how strategic partnerships are accelerating adoption. Learn how to move from reactive workflows to intelligent, AI-driven design—while addressing real-world challenges like cost, safety, Sustainable Design, and performance uncertainty. Ideal for AEC professionals, engineers, and innovation leaders looking to apply AI in practical, scalable ways.

The principle of Industrialized construction is to apply techniques learned from industries such as Automotive design to the design and construction of buildings. Moving to this new world has inherent challenges, from the complexity of mass customization to the supply chain pipeline.
You are not alone. Many great minds are focused on this complex problem and the challenges of getting there from where we are today.
If you are involved in the manufacture of building products or equipment, the pre-fabrication of building components and modular systems, or the challenges of implementing design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) in your Architectural practice, come and join your peers at Autodesk University for this informal networking session.
Take this opportunity to meet others at AU who are focused on the same problems as you and build your network of peers to help you meet this challenge long after AU is over.

In today's fast-paced construction landscape, precision and productivity are more crucial than ever. In this session, HP will share its vision for the in AEC, highlighting how HP Construction Services is bridging the gap between the digital and physical worlds—from design to layout to on-site execution. Learn how HP SitePrint, has evolved, delivering unmatched speed, accuracy, and consistency on construction sites. Today, SitePrint goes even further, now offering floor deviation marking capabilities. This advancement allows teams to mark both layout and deviation points in a single, real-time process, helping crews identify out-of-tolerance areas early and streamline coordination across trades. Discover how HP is helping Construction Professionals build with confidence by rethinking layout and enabling smarter, connected construction workflows that improve productivity and reduce rework.

Buildings contribute to more than 40% of global carbon emissions, and one key scalable solution is to reuse and upgrade existing buildings and materials instead of constructing new ones. This session showcases how Autodesk Research is exploring artificial intelligence (AI) for net-zero buildings in the context of existing building projects. The team is exploring two AI-driven prototypes: one is about assessing a building’s existing conditions with limited and multimodal data. This enables AECO professionals to "see inside walls"—similarly to an “x-ray view”—and cataloging hidden materials including their potential for reusability without destructive testing. The second AI-driven prototype involves creating new low-carbon assemblies using repurposed materials. With this workflow users can specify high-level goals like “reuse materials”, “reduce carbon” and “minimize cost” and interactively explore many different options. The presentation highlights potential integration opportunities with relevant Autodesk platform features, demonstrating how designers, contractors, and building owners can make informed decisions that significantly minimize carbon footprint while creating new economic value from existing assets.

Digital Prototypings are transforming the infrastructure and construction industry by bridging the gap between physical and digital realms. Join us at Autodesk University for a dynamic meetup where we’ll dive into the complexities, practical realities, and future of Digital Prototyping technology.
We’ll explore key topics such as how Digital Prototypings differ from other tools like BIM and GIS, the role of AI and real-time data in reshaping digital practices, and their unique applications in sectors like water utilities. We'll also explore how data insights are driving intelligent construction and fostering integrated ecosystems.
Whether you're evaluating the potential of Digital Prototyping technology, seeking to understand its benefits for Infrastructure and Construction, or looking to connect with industry experts over casual networking, this meetup has something for everyone. Hosted by knowledgeable Autodesk employees from our research, product and consulting teams, participants will gain valuable insights, share experiences, and build meaningful connections.
Join us for an engaging conversation on what it takes to bring Digital Prototypings to life and explore the future of construction and infrastructure through the lens of this transformative technology.

Don't have plans or any design details for a given bridge? Join us for an insightful discussion on how Parsons and Autodesk have teamed up to use high-resolution photogrammetry coupled with Autodesk’s newest Reality Capture capabilities to streamline the creation of existing-condition intelligent models for downstream bridge design and analysis. This session will showcase the innovative collaboration between industry leaders and the transformative impact that advanced technology is having on bridge engineering.

How do the world’s newest mega-stadiums achieve a seamless hand-off from design to day-to-day operations—without a single roll of paper? Join owners and contractors of Qatar’s Lusail Stadium, the Jeddah Central Development Company (JCDC) waterfront arena, and other landmark venues as they reveal hard-won lessons from projects where BIM was embedded from day one. Moderated by Pinnacle Infotech—the prime BIM consultant on each build—this panel dissects model-centric collaboration, laser-scanning quality control, supplier integration, and the creation of live Digital Prototypings that facility teams actually use. Walk away ready to replicate the workflows, contracts, and tech stack that kept these billion-dollar facilities on spec and future-proof.

Is your onboarding process accelerating performance—or slowing your team down? In the AEC industry, where cost, time, and talent shortages stall Management, effective onboarding is no longer optional. With 61% of leaders struggling to find technically skilled employees, the need for structured, continuous learning is urgent. This session shares how JMT tackled capability gaps and project ramp-up delays by implementing a standardized onboarding program using Pinnacle Series. Discover how they built a scalable, trackable learning program that equips new hires to contribute faster, with less downtime. Learn how personalized training, workflow alignment, and access to best practices helped JMT boost retention, satisfaction, and billable hours. If you're ready to transform onboarding into a strategic advantage, this session will show you how to drive results from day one.
