buildingSMART United Arab Emirates

buildingSMART United Arab Emirates (UAE) is hosted by Dubai Municipality since 2020 and aims to promote and support digital transformation in the building and construction sector through the promotion and adoption of open standards. It also aims to participate actively in the various buildingSMART events and technical rooms, especially those related to buildings, regulations, BIM-GIS integration, and digital twins. To achieve its vision, the chapter cooperates with government entities, private companies, and educational institutions in the UAE to raise awareness about openBIM standards and benefits by organizing workshops, conferences and preparing training programs for participants from the UAE and the broader region.
