Keynote
The Predictive Planning Frontier: Design, Estimating, and Preconstruction Integration
Panel Discussion
This session will unpack how modern design tools, model-based estimating, dynamic scheduling, and integrated preconstruction platforms are reshaping workflows. We will explore how predictive modeling serves as a central intelligence layer, translating massive datasets into actionable insights that flow seamlessly from initial design through estimating to final preconstruction execution. By leveraging these integrated forecasts, teams can proactively identify risks and coordination challenges, allowing for strategic re-sequencing and resource optimization during preconstruction
Networking Break
Preconstruction
Research Presentation
Leveraging insights and data from BuiltWorlds’ Benchmarking Program, this research presentation examines how contractors are leveraging technology to improve preconstruction workflows, from estimating to scheduling and design coordination.
Scaling Resilience and Risk Management through Modeling and Frameworks
Panel Discussion
This panel explores how industry stakeholders are evolving risk frameworks powered by AI and predictive data by moving beyond manual spreadsheets to automated, data-driven workflows. By institutionalizing contract memory and leveraging real-time insights, firms can proactively mitigate enterprise-wide liabilities, protect portfolio margins, and ensure long-term organizational stability in an increasingly volatile market.
Back to Building: How AI, BIM, and Open Ecosystems Are Redefining Construction
Spotlight
In this forward‑looking session, Fieldwire CEO Puneet Raj outlines a bold vision for the next era of construction management, one powered by connected, intelligent technology built for the jobsite. He’ll explore how software integrations, scalable BIM workflows, and AI built for construction teams are converging to create a more predictive, data‑driven construction ecosystem. Attendees will gain insight into how modern construction tech can unlock smarter coordination, faster decision‑making, and a fundamentally better way to build.
Lunch
Project Software
Research Presentation
Leveraging insights and data from BuiltWorlds’ Benchmarking Program, this research presentation examines how contractors are leveraging technology to improve project management, document management and associated workflows from the office to the job site.
Afternoon Spotlight Session 1 - Trimble Connect and Scale
Analyzing Opportunities within the Modern Jobsite to Maximize Growth and Opportunity
Lightning Round
This session will explore the friction between digital simulations and the physical realities of managing materials, equipment, and personnel in real-time. We will analyze how the shift toward offsite prefabrication and the targeted use of robotics are fundamentally redefining the critical path and site supply chain. As established firms mature, capital will be increasingly converged on specialized, tech-enabled solutions that transform these operational shifts from experimental pilots into scalable, high-growth investment opportunities.
Networking Break
Engineering a Bulletproof GC-Sub Partnership
Fireside Chat
Strong general contractor-subcontractor partnerships built on transparent communication, aligned technology platforms, and shared project goals create multiplier effects that drive better outcomes across schedule, safety, and profitability. This session showcases proven frameworks for fostering true collaboration—from early preconstruction engagement and joint risk management to integrated data sharing—that transform traditional adversarial relationships into strategic alliances where both parties win together.
BuiltWorlds' Demo Day Pitch Competition
The signature Demo Day Pitch Competition by BuiltWorlds will showcase a select group of startups to be rated and evaluated by a group of VC and CVC Judges within the Built Environment.

Case Study Presentation
Transforming Enterprise Chaos into Actionable Intelligence
Breakout Discussion
This discussion will explore the process of translating complex human thinking and institutional knowledge into data models that Large Language Models (LLMs) can actually use to solve enterprise-level problems.
Networking Break
Field Solutions
Research Presentation
Leveraging insights from BuiltWorlds’ Benchmarking Program, this research presentation explores how contractors are adopting field solutions to enhance jobsite efficiency and coordination. The topics to be presented on will include tools and technology that are reshaping field operations across the construction industry.
Assessing Readiness for AI/ML Integration
Panel Discussion
The construction industry stands at a critical inflection point where the question isn't whether AI/ML can transform operations, but whether firms have built the organizational and technical infrastructure required to leverage these technologies effectively. This session explores how industry leaders are honestly assessing their current state, establishing data governance frameworks, and building the cross-functional capabilities needed to ensure AI investments deliver measurable value rather than becoming expensive proof-of-concept experiments.
Morning Spotlight Session | Trunk Tools Case Study
Breakout Discussion
Lunch
Equipment & Robotics
Research Presentation
