Advancing digitalisation and the call for sustainable construction processes place new demands on practice. With the BIM After Work Workshop series, professionals from planning, construction and operation gain targeted insight into the interdisciplinary application of the BIM method – compact, practice-oriented and well connected.

In focused evening events, experienced speakers explore current topics around Building Information Modelling (BIM) and its role in future-proof construction. The workshops combine technological developments with sustainability issues, highlight practice-relevant areas of application and encourage exchange between different disciplines.

Whether for introduction, deepening knowledge or discussion, the BIM After Work Workshops provide space for new perspectives and lively dialogue.

Recognise Opportunities – Apply Tools – Implement Sustainability

The SME Practice Forum is a workshop series specifically designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), offering practical support in dealing with current sustainability requirements. In four coordinated workshops, experienced professionals share knowledge, best practices and concrete tools to enable targeted and actionable corporate responsibility.

What distinguishes this format:

• Focus on key sustainability topics such as management, environment, social issues and digital responsibility
• Interactive workshops with experienced speakers from business and practice
• Exchange among regional SMEs to develop joint solutions
• Concrete tools for implementation in everyday business

The series raises awareness of regulatory developments, highlights possible actions and promotes sustainable entrepreneurship as a success factor for Liechtenstein’s economic location.
