Inside the Construction Technology ConFex KSA: What to Expect in 2025

A group of professionals discussing Construction Technology ConFex KSA

There is no lie in the fact that the Saudi construction landscape is evolving. And, yes, modern solutions are becoming a major part of the transformations. One event that has a solid reputation for discussing innovations in KSA is the Construction Technology ConFex KSA. In 2025, we are returning with a more impactful event. It will be an even more powerful platform for all the construction professionals, innovators, and government bodies to collaborate.

So, let’s check out what is really inside the ConFex KSA 2025. You will surely be amazed when you reach the end.

What makes CTF KSA Unique?

Well, you might want to know what is special about CTF KSA this time. It isn’t just another industry event. It is one of the region’s most forward-thinking conferences. The idea is to stay focused squarely on digital transformation in the built environment.

Experts in the construction industry know that this sector in Saudi Arabia is undergoing a tremendous shift. The reasons behind the transformations are initiatives, such as Vision 2030, and the rise of giga-projects like NEOM, The Red Sea Project, and Qiddiya. These projects are tech-heavy and demand modern solutions. They excellently combine speed, sustainability, and intelligence.

Another addition to the answer to what sets Construction Technology ConFex KSA 2025 apart is its ability to bring together the public and private sectors under one roof. It includes 1000+ Attendees, 120+ high-calibre speakers, 60+ sponsors & exhibitors. In this event, government officials, technology providers, project leaders, and construction firms gather to address various challenges, showcase innovations, and explore future-ready solutions.

The 2025 edition emphasises :

  • Digital transformation across design, planning, and operations.
  • Smart infrastructure—IoT, connected construction, and integrated systems.
  • Sustainable and green solutions aimed at reducing environmental impact.
  • Modular and prefabricated construction streamlines efficiency on-site.

This event is tailored for transformation—from blueprint to building.

Key Themes & Topics to Expect

Experience virtual reality at the Construction Technology ConFex KSA

1. AI and Robotics in Construction

Artificial Intelligence is revolutionising the construction workflow—from predictive modelling and safety monitoring to optimising resource allocation. Expect demos and deep dives into how AI-driven platforms help reduce waste, predict issues, and improve decision-making.

Robotics will also be in focus. For example, automated brick-laying robots, drones for surveying, and exoskeletons that enhance worker efficiency. These are all part of many modern job sites. Besides, you’ll see how robotics is not replacing workers. They enhance safety, speed, and productivity.

2. BIM (Building Information Modelling) Advancements

Well, BIM has also evolved far beyond 3D modelling. In 2025, we’re talking about 4D, 5D, and even 6D BIM—adding elements of time, cost, and sustainability into the mix. These advanced tools allow teams to collaborate across disciplines while minimising errors and delays.

Sessions will cover :

  • Integration of BIM with AR/VR.
  • BIM’s role in smart cities.
  • BIM as a collaborative contract management tool.

Expect to see real-life case studies from mega-projects that have embedded BIM into their lifecycle.

3. 3D Printing and Prefabrication

In a region that’s moving fast, speed is everything. That's where 3D printing and off-site prefabrication come in. At Construction Technology ConFex KSA 2025, discover how 3D printing is reducing the time, cost, and carbon footprint of complex construction.

Highlights include :

  • Modular construction with design for manufacturing and assembly (DfMA).
  • Use of robotic arms in prefab assembly.
  • Case studies of 3D-printed homes in the Middle East.

4. Green Building & Sustainable Building Materials

Saudi Arabia is investing heavily in sustainability, and the construction sector plays a major role. Mostadam, a Saudi green building rating system is also aligned here with the Saudi Green Building Code (SgBC 1001). You can explore innovations in:

  • Low-carbon concrete.
  • Recycled steel.
  • Bio-based insulation materials.
  • Solar-integrated building facades.

With net zero on the agenda, this is your chance to learn how construction materials are evolving to meet environmental goals without sacrificing performance.
