Digitalization of the Construction Industry


The rapid growth in housing and infrastructure construction has been accompanied by active digitalization, which is becoming an integral component of maintaining high rates of planning, construction, equipment, and sales of residential and commercial properties.
Modern technologies are actively permeating the entire development cycle. Further digitalization will contribute to the introduction of generative designs for both the spatial planning of a territory and its infrastructure support. In particular, resource supplying organizations will be able to promptly monitor and respond to the depreciation of public utilities and the quality of services provided to the population.
Urban digital twins will soon be responsible for monitoring the implementation of master plans, urban construction, and infrastructure repair.
At the construction and operational stage, phygital services, sales ecosystems, as well as smart services, items, and homes are becoming more popular. All these technologies help adapt developers’ conventional solutions to the individual needs of future residents and provide them with comfort and a safe life.
What is the future of digitalization in the construction industry of Russia and the Far East? What other ecosystems and smart equipment should developers be introducing in their projects above all else? Will this affect the cost of housing in Russia and the Far East?

City by the Water. Best Urban Planning Practices


Cities have historically developed around rivers, lakes, and seas. Transport, logistics, and industrial facilities were all formed in coastal areas. Modern cities have revealed the potential of embankments for citizens and tourists. They ensure a pleasant urban environment and serve as key spaces for the development of the urban economy.

How can we find a functional balance and comprehensively transform embankments to meet the modern needs of people and businesses?

How should embankments be integrated into a city’s water and green landscape and protected against flooding and groundwater flooding, which are rising due to climate change?

What is the best way to build effective mechanisms for public and private investment in coastal areas?

Water: A Source of Life and Concession Mechanisms. What’s the Connection?


As water shortages continue to grow, conscious consumption is becoming a key tool for resource management. According to the World Bank, water consumption is increasing worldwide each day. The UN projects that more than half of the world’s population may face water shortages by 2050.
This may lead to the deterioration of public health, decreased food production, and social instability in countries that experience shortages. Although Russia is not threatened by this as a whole, individual regions of the country may face water shortages as early as 2035. Even today, clean drinking water is only available thanks to modern purification technologies. The threat of a shortage of clean water is prompting countries to develop a new consumption model and transform their current systems.

How can we change consumers’ attitudes towards water?

How can we reduce losses and improve the quality of existing water resources?

How should water sources be protected against the environmental disasters that are disrupting the planet?

What is the best way to build modern infrastructure that meets the challenges of the new times?

Who Is Building in the Far East?


The National Programme for the Socioeconomic Development of the Far East indicates that more than 3 million m2 of housing needs to be built per year by 2035 in order to improve housing conditions and people need to be resettled from more than 1.7 million m2 of dilapidated housing.
For the country’s central regions, this is a feasible task, but for the Far East, it is a challenge not only for the region itself, but for the entire country.
The government provides maximum support to developers and buyers in the form of benefits and programmes to stimulate purchasing power and developers’ interest in going to the Far East.
What is currently happening in the construction sector, where the construction and technological base is only expanding and demand is just emerging. Are major construction holdings going to the Far East? How is the government supporting the construction sector? And how are local builders coping with the exponential growth in demand for their products?
