Buick is currently Senior Vice President in Oracle’s Construction & Engineering business and Board Director on construction & technology companies including Propeller Aero Inc, Utecture and Grupo Protexa.

She has 25 years experience building and leading teams that digitally transform industries by automating and re-engineering customer workflow and information management.

The webinar will seek to define construction 4.0 and what it actually means to construction businesses and examine how drones, AI, VR and robotics – as well as more traditional construction tools – can be brought together, through the use of data, to provide much-needed productivity and efficiency boosts.

A third speaker will be announced soon. The webinar will be moderated by Mike Hayes, editor of Construction Europe.
