As part of the convention, there will be a forum and exhibition on 9-10 April with the theme ‘Embracing Construction of Tomorrow’. This session will explore four key topics driving industry transformation: Urban Resilience & Coastal Protection, Green Financing, Construction Technology, and Sustainability.

The two-day forum and exhibition will bring together construction professionals, business leaders and government officials to address industry challenges, uncover business opportunities and showcase the latest trends that are reshaping the built environment.

The organisation plays a critical role in promoting international fellowship and cooperation; in developing beneficial relationships between governments and contractors in the region; and in establishing cooperative working arrangements in the furtherance of civil and building construction projects.
