Construction Excellence Southwest Summit 2026

Laurence Associates recently attended the Construction Excellence Southwest Summit 2026, where industry professionals from across the construction sector came together to explore the key challenges and opportunities shaping the future of the built environment.

The event featured insightful panel discussions covering topics such as skills and AI, sustainability, building safety, procurement and emerging technologies. Each session highlighted how collaboration, innovation and forward-thinking approaches are helping the sector respond to evolving demands.

It was a valuable opportunity for Jason and Sam to gain insight into how these important issues are being addressed across the industry, as well as to connect with likeminded professionals and build new relationships within the sector.

Events like this are an important reminder of the collective effort required to ensure construction continues to grow, adapt and thrive.
