Cate Lochead, Chief Marketing Officer, Bentley Systems, said this year’s finalists had moved beyond traditional workflow digitalisation by connecting data across lifecycle phases and engineering disciplines and using AI to support infrastructure decision-making.

She added that an open ecosystem enabling infrastructure professionals to connect data and preferred software would be important to applying AI to complex infrastructure challenges.
