Industry Day
1 July 2024
The Industry Day also provides a valuable forum for participants to share key takeaways and lessons learned from their experiences. By exchanging insights and successes, we can collectively inspire one another and ignite new ideas to be explored and tested in pilot projects. These endeavours aim to develop even more effective methods for aligning project stakeholders and overcoming the challenges that often arise during construction endeavours.
As you join us on this special day, expect to be surrounded by a diverse and dynamic community of industry leaders and experts. The collaborative atmosphere will encourage open dialogue, thoughtful discussions, and the exchange of invaluable knowledge. Together, we can shape the future of Lean construction and build a stronger, more resilient industry.
We wholeheartedly invite you to mark your calendar for the IGLC32 Industry Day, an event that promises to be both enlightening and inspiring. We eagerly anticipate your presence as we come together to learn, share, and collaborate, driving the construction industry forward one breakthrough at a time.
Join us on this transformative journey and be a part of the positive change that will shape the future of Lean project delivery.
