This session explores the transformative potential of integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the design and construction industries. Attendees will learn about cutting-edge AI applications that streamline project workflows, enhance decision-making, and foster innovation from planning through execution. The session will highlight case studies demonstrating AI's impact on cost efficiency, sustainability, and safety in construction projects. Additionally, experts will discuss future trends, potential challenges, and strategies for effectively adopting AI in design and construction practices.
Mark is a steadfast believer in the power of collaborative design, with a professional and academic focus on parametric design, software development, and the construction and fabrication of complex projects. In practice, he uses computer algorithms to generate design solutions that engage users and stakeholders, respond to people and place.
Mark works across HOK's global offices designing generative algorithms using software platforms that interface with most AEC and PLM software platforms. His solutions cross disciplinary boundaries and go beyond design theory considering the pragmatic aspects of design process – Mark designs and creates custom digital technologies to solve real-world design challenges.

Janne Aas-Jakobsen is the founder of CONSIGLI, the Autonomous Engineer that uses AI to reduce risk, costs and carbon footprint in real estate development projects. She has extensive experience from the industry and has previously built several companies and contributed to various boards within construction and property. Started out as a Master of Structural Engineering
My focus is on enabling organizations to solve hard, real-world challenges by building teams of smart people who apply their talents to create pragmatic, reliable technology solutions to address the challenges. My journey in this field began after earning a degree in Geological Engineering, leading to 25 years of experience delivering data-driven insights across various industries, including Environmental, Financial, AEC, Mining, Oil and Gas. In 2016, I co-founded Menome Technologies with the goal of revolutionizing business data usage. Menome's primary focus was on demystifying complex data, consolidating fragmented information, and offering clear, actionable insights. This strategy significantly aided organizations in making informed decisions, understanding their clientele, and maintaining a competitive edge. The dataLink platform, developed by Menome, was instrumental in fostering business growth and efficiency through sophisticated insights and analytics. After successfully exiting Menome following its acquisition by Arcurve, I help lead their AI/ML practice. I am actively involved in expanding the team and its capabilities, managing projects that enhance organizational performance through technology, and frequently speak on pragmatic, applied AI.
