From ThinkBIM GreenBIM
On behalf of thinkBIM we just wanted to say once again thanks for presenting and joining our panel at our recent GreenBIM event. We think the event was a great success and the feedback following has been very positive. We were really pleased there was interactive chat taking place in the chat box during the event and also comments and discussion on twitter which you can see using #tbim2021.
Liz has done a fantastic job editing all the videos from the event which can be found on the School YouTube channel and on our dedicated blog page:-http://ckegroup.org/thinkbimblog/resources-from-greenbim-conference-may-2021/
James Simpson’s presentation on visualisation in performing arts and relevance to the construction industry did contain some commercially sensitive images, so that particularly recording will be edited and a version for public display will circulated in due course.
Finally, just below resources you will also find links to many of the news stories and documents mentioned by Duncan Reed in his digital update and approx. timings they appear.

SLIDO
- Attached is a report showing the results from the Slido polls.
- You asked some very good questions that provided some very interesting answers!
Thank you once again for your support and we hope you will join us for our next event on 15th September where will be celebrating 10 years of thinkBIM! We will be looking back at some of the issues covered and where the industry is now and what we need to do going forward to make the most of the opportunities digital gives us. We are hoping for this to be an in-person event all digits crossed. Details to be released nearer the time.
Feedback
Finally if you could share a few words about your experience of working with thinkBIM we would really appreciate your feedback to help shape our networks moving forward.
The industry has moved on leaps and bounds since 2015 and GreenBIM has too, the first event scratched the surface and disappointed, this one dug deep and showed the breadth and depth that we are going to, to understand carbon and LCA what a refreshing change.
The speakers and their topics helped in the essential understanding of the subject and lists of industry initiatives showed there is a lot going on in thinkBIM and plenty of GreenBIM too.
Many thanks
