SMART BUILDINGS: “No More Excuses for Dumb Buildings”


Across China and especially the Greater Bay Area, developers and property managers face recurring pain points in managing large, high-usage buildings and reducing buildings’ carbon footprints while managing the tenant experience. Making buildings smarter is no longer an option; it is a necessity.

Mr. Will Cavendish, Global Digital Services Leader at Arup, shared that Smart Buildings are moving from fringe to mainstream as more Smart Buildings are being architected with the help of digital twins. Subsequently, Mr. Vincent See, Head of New Ventures at Swire Properties, presented some key reasons why building owners invest in Smart Buildings and the relevant technologies.

They were joined by Mr. Dan Wong, General Manager of Global Innovation of MTR Corporation, and Mr. Thomas Pang, Acting CEO of Neuron Digital Group, for a discussion. The session is moderated by Mr. Benson Tam, Founder & CEO of Venturous Group.

Recorded on Thursday, 24 November 2022, this was the fourth of five sessions during Venturous Group’s Smart Citytech™ Week 2022.
