After some deliberation, I agreed, and also helped publicise the event through …

Not strictly a collaboration solution, more an expertise-oriented social network, start-up Senubo is set to launch in early 2011. Yesterday I attended a half-day workshop organised by the Construction Productivity Network focused on how to get the UK construction industry to deliver “more for less” – a topical ambition given that tomorrow the government is …

Having recently registered to attend ICT4Construction on 28 October (post) – the first construction collaboration-specific conference in the UK, I think, since the NCCTP conference in November 2005 (post) – I have just received notification of a similar event in the USA.
