Qatar will host the Building Information Modeling (BIM) Summit 2026 on October 4, bringing together engineers, policymakers, industry experts and representatives from government, private sector and academic institutions.
Organized by the Qatar Society of Engineers, the event comes amid growing global adoption of digital technologies in construction and infrastructure. BIM is increasingly being used to improve project planning, design, construction and asset management, helping to boost efficiency, reduce costs and support sustainability.
The summit aims to reinforce Qatar's position as a regional leader in digital transformation within the construction sector by providing a platform for local and international experts to share best practices and emerging innovations.
Chairperson of the Qatar Society of Engineers, Amna Al Naama, said BIM has become a key tool that connects all project stakeholders within a unified digital environment, supporting decision-making throughout a project's life cycle.
Discussions will focus on the future of BIM in Qatar, as well as the role of artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies in project and asset management.
Held under the patronage of the Ministry of Municipality, the summit supports Qatar National Vision 2030 and the country's efforts to advance sustainable, technology-driven development.
