EuroCham's Construction Sector Committee
AI is rapidly changing how buildings and infrastructure are designed, coordinated and delivered. From generative design and automated documentation to BIM-based coordination and project controls, new tools are entering every stage of the project lifecycle. Yet many firms remain at the demonstration stage: solutions look impressive in presentations but deliver limited value on real projects.
Following the Ho Chi Minh City edition on 28 October 2026, the Construction Sector Committee (CSC) of
EuroCham Vietnam brings its Breakfast Talk “AI under Construction: From Demo to Job Site” to Hanoi. The session explores the practical applications of AI across architectural design, project management and BIM workflows, with a focus on what it takes to turn AI’s potential into real value: reliable processes, relevant project data and thoughtful integration into existing workflows.
Highlighted points:
• Share practical examples of AI applied in architectural design, project management and BIM workflows.
• Discuss the conditions for moving AI from pilots to everyday project delivery, including processes, data and documentation.
• Explore how to balance automation with professional expertise.
• Create networking opportunities between European and Vietnamese industry professionals.
