About

The civil engineering industry has long been regarded as a traditional sector. However, in recent years, with advances in technology, many companies in the civil engineering field, including those in civil works, architecture, MEP, and signaling systems, have begun applying AI, AR/VR, IoT, digital twins, and other advanced technologies.

To further promote collaboration and technological exchange, the first CivilTech Expo was held in 2023, with more than 40 enterprises from across Taiwan participating. The event received extensive media coverage (please refer to the media reports). This year,  upgraded as 2025 CivilTech Expo & International Conference, the event will be jointly organized by professors from the United Kingdom, the United States, Spain, Poland, Japan, Malaysia, India and Taiwan, serving as members of the Executive Organizing Committee (listed below in alphabetical order by surname).,extending invitations to enterprises worldwide.

The application of technology in the civil engineering industry continues to present a blue-ocean opportunity. We invite interested enterprises to participate in an event designed to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among civil engineering companies, as well as technology application software and hardware companies worldwide, and to advance the development of CivilTech. We would be honored to welcome interested enterprises to join the event and become members of the CivilTech Alliance as long-term partners in this important initiative.

In addition, with the participation of international industry and academic representatives, technical visits will be arranged before and after the conference. For details, please refer to Schedule
