A new
conversation

SHIFT: Construction brings together the people driving progress: contractors, consultants, developers, advisors, and digital enablers, for a focused, peer-led discussion on the sector’s biggest challenges.

It’s a chance to step out of day-to-day project pressures, connect with others facing the same obstacles, and shape how construction in the South West evolves through data, compliance, and digital innovation.

You’ll leave with new insights, meaningful connections, and a clearer view of what better looks like for your business and the wider sector.

Why attend?

  • See the bigger picture: Get beyond day-to-day pressures and understand how data, compliance, and digital trends are impacting every link in the supply chain, from tender to handover.

    Make meaningful connections: Build relationships with senior professionals who face the same operational headaches, strategic pressures, and opportunities as you.

    Shape the conversation: Your voice matters. Insights from SHIFT will directly inform how ADT invests in construction-focused solutions and sector support.

    Gain clarity and focus: Step away from the noise to refocus on what’s next, what better looks like for your teams, your projects, and the sector as a whole.

Who it’s for?

SHIFT: Construction is designed for professionals shaping how the sector operates, delivers, and evolves:

  • Main contractors and sub-contractors

  • Developers and client-side leads

  • Consultancy and advisory firms

  • Digital, data, and transformation leaders

  • Compliance, governance, and risk specialists

  • Industry influencers and policy shapers

If your work touches construction delivery, strategy, or innovation, this conversation is for you.

What to expect?

This is not a lecture. It’s a roundtable built on real sector insight, guided by experienced facilitators, and focused on surfacing practical, actionable takeaways.

  • Informed by real conversations: Topics are shaped by ongoing discussions with senior figures from across the South West construction ecosystem.

  • Grounded in operational priorities: We’ll focus on the themes that matter most, from compliance and data challenges to efficiency and delivery bottlenecks.

  • Facilitated for outcomes: Every table features subject matter experts and professional facilitators to ensure discussions stay relevant, valuable, and focused on solutions.

You’ll walk away with new perspectives, peer connections, and insights you can apply immediately.

Why It’s Different?

  • Limited places: invite-only to maintain focus and trust.

     

  • Real conversations, not sales pitches: shaped by operational leaders like you.

     

  • Your input shapes future solutions: insights from SHIFT directly inform ADT’s construction-focused investments.

Too many events nowadays are all noise and no substance, SHIFT was the opposite. It was clear, focused, and actionable, with a real sense of momentum coming out of the room.

Miles Watson
Managing Director

What stood out at SHIFT was how practical it was. Real-world challenges, honest conversations, and a focus on collaboration rather than just theory. I left with new ideas and connections I could actually use.

Robert Mead
Finance Director

The conversations were so real at SHIFT. It wasn’t people talking at you, it was a mix of views from across the industry. I came away with ideas I wouldn’t have picked up anywhere else, and a better sense of what others are trying to solve too.

Rose Martin
Project Manager

Very insightful event, full of great ideas with brilliant speakers, thank you for organising Assured Digital!
