What better way to close out ASCE2025 and look ahead to ASCE2027 than with a forward-looking conversation on smart infrastructure, immersive technology, and the future of engineering?
Moderated by Aarti Tandon, Executive Director of Smart City Expo USA, this dynamic panel brings together leaders from Bentley Systems, Autodesk, and Epic Games, companies driving innovation in infrastructure modeling, digital twins, and real-time simulation.
Panelists will explore how cities are leveraging advanced technologies to prepare for global events like the FIFA World Cup 2026, and how immersive platforms like Unreal Engine are transforming stakeholder engagement, urban planning, and fan experiences. From traffic redesigns in North Carolina to digital twins of stadiums in St. Louis, these case studies showcase the power of public-private collaboration and future-ready infrastructure.
Whether you're an engineer, technologist, planner, or policymaker, this session will inspire you to think differently about how we design, simulate, and connect our built environment.
