AU 2022 Highlights for Construction Professionals

Lack of skilled workers? Need for more buildings? Construction professionals know they need to build faster, more efficiently, more sustainably—and with greater complexity.

At AU 2022, construction professionals will be coming together to share ideas, insights, and innovations for how we can connect teams, workflows, and communities and move forward to create a better world for all. Registration is currently open. Check out these featured sessions:

General Sessions and industry keynotes

The conference kicks off with General Session Day 1, where Autodesk President and CEO Andrew Anagnost will share how moving collaboration and data to the cloud can help create solutions to the disruptions we face today. And General Session Day 2 will feature business leaders across industries sharing how they’ve handled digital transformation—and navigated the journey to new skillsets, toolsets, and ultimately, new mindsets. And make sure you’re in your seat for the Construction Session on Wednesday afternoon to learn how to standardize processes and unlock the power of your data.
