She is a past president of the Royal Society of Medicine, a professor of palliative medicine at Cardiff University School of Medicine and a consultant at the Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff.

Krystal’s passion for construction and technology started in her university days when she earned a Civil Engineering degree from the University of California, Berkeley. Shortly after graduation, Krystal worked for DPR Construction on several biopharmaceutical and hospital projects in the Bay Area. The most memorable project she worked on was the Sutter Eden Medical Center: a $320 million, 130-bed, ground-up, acute care hospital which was built using BIM and an unprecedented 11-party Integrated Project Delivery contract system. Krystal joined Autodesk in 2015 in San Francisco with a remit to evangelize the pilot release of BIM 360 Docs before her first move to the U.K. with Autodesk in early 2016.

Having previously worked for Morgan Sindall, Steve has been in a multi-disciplined design and build environment for 24 years. He has a vast knowledge of the problems that can be encountered on projects of all sizes, and provides suitable solutions. Steve’s main expertise lies in the design, construction and management workflow of information and technology requirements to ensure a project meets the full requirements and data is reused through the delivery. Steve acts as the Project BIM manager and information manager for our clients and helps them de-risk and deliver the project to meet the full defined requirements.

Tom is the Founder & CEO of Oculo, a digital twin solution for the built environment. He is passionate about bringing the benefits of cutting edge technology to the construction process, while crucially making it easy to use and accessible to all stakeholders.

Richard challenges all those involved in the construction process to work smarter. Working as a Business Area Director for the Symetri Construction team, he aims to deliver world class technology solutions and services which increase the capability and capacity of all those involved in construction.
