The session will also examine diverse research and precedent-setting projects to provide comprehensive perspectives on:

  • Impacts of disruptive architectural innovation in various continents
  • the role of NextGen disruptive architectural innovators in enabling wholistic resilience in the built environment

With an elastic capacity for creativity and innovative thinking – which in turn excites disruptive radical changes, every successful next-generation-led architectural paradigm shift often demonstrates considerable advantages for the built environment. Accordingly, the session seeks to create an awareness of the need for dialogue with the wider society and demonstrate how disruptive architectural innovation can translate into an advantage premium in tangible value and a call to action on IDEA (Inclusivity, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility) to leave no one behind!
