It’s not just in the central exhibition where the latest industry innovation will be in the spotlight. The event also features a CPD-accredited programme packed with 160+ hours of free-to-attend content delivered by 300+ expert speakers from across the built environment.
Visitors will be spoilt for choice at this year’s show, with nine theatres focused on some of the key areas shaping digital construction. These include information management, asset management, geospatial, visualisation, digital transformation, Net Zero and more.
The theatres are home to high profile presenters and curated panel discussions covering the industry’s most pressing issues. Last year, the programme included speakers from Bryden Wood, Construction Innovation Hub, the Government & Industry Interoperability Group (GIIG), Mace, Skanksa, The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC), and Turner & Townsend.
Other big names who shared their ideas at the 2022 show included Bella Nguyen, PhD, Sustainability Program Manager for Amazon Transportation Services; Dale Sinclair, Director, Head of Digital Innovation at WSP; and Alison Watson MBE, Founder and Chief Executive at Class Of Your Own Limited.
Attendees can expect to be inspired and informed by a wide range of talks and panels, exploring new ideas and actionable insights. The full programme will be announced in the spring.

David Philp, Chief Value Officer at Cohesive and host of ‘Digital Transformation brought to you by Construction Innovation Hub’, described DCW 2022 as ‘the best yet’ commenting “[there was] incredible energy on the floor and a real sense of enabling purposeful change. It is an important week for the industry, allowing diverse and focused collaboration across many built environment actors and organisations.
