The world is changing rapidly. By 2050, two out of every three people are likely to be living in cities or other urban centres, requiring affordable housing and infrastructure*. The construction industry must transform to address this challenge, which will have positive effects on reducing costs, utilizing resources, and promoting eco-efficiency. This will narrow the infrastructure gap and stimulate economic growth.
For 43 years Big 5 Global has provided an unparralled platform for the industry to build new business, expand international networks and learn from leading innovators from around the world driving positive business environments and societal change.
