Cityscape talks to put spotlight on advanced tech, climate resilience

UAE - While climate change has dominated headlines recently and will be the focus of Dubai’s November 2023 hosting of COP 28, Cityscape Intelligence Talks – the powerful conference series of Cityscape, Dubai’s largest property finding event - will hear calls for more industry adoption of advanced technology and attention to climate resilience alongside sustainability and urban regeneration.

Taking to the stage at the Cityscape Intelligence Talks, which runs at the Dubai World Trade Centre from November 21 to 23, Bhami Muhamed Ilyas, Regional Business Director of the USA’s CCP Wind Engineering, will call for renewed climate resilience focus while helping delegates navigate wind effects on urban development and its architecture, said the event organiser Informa Markets.

"As buildings grow taller, less conventional in form, and the urban environment densifies, wind effects become a more significant consideration in design," said Ilyas.

"Based on an understanding of wind patterns and comfort levels around developments, architectural and structural designers can refine and optimize architecture and structural systems to meet reliability goals while minimizing costs and maximizing user experience," he added.

Advanced technology is being promoted throughout the Cityscape Intelligence Talks agenda forecasting a wide range of aspects including site inspections and transparency delivery.
