EDITOR ’ S COMMENT Harnessing technology
WELCOME TO THE March issue of Construction Global . Our cover story this month features Palm Hills Developments , one of the leading real estate companies in Egypt . And we have an interview with Graeme Baxter , Turner & Townsend ’ s Head of Infrastructure in the Middle East , currently delivering a new terminal for Abu Dhabi International Airport .
We also have two features looking at the role of technology in today ’ s construction projects , with a detailed look at how the industry can make use of cloud technology and the Internet of Things . Our second technology feature looks at social media – and gives some interesting examples of how different platforms can be used by construction firms . Let us know if – and how – you use social media within your organisation .
We hope you enjoy the issue , and if you have anything to add , don ’ t hesitate to tweet @ ConstructionGL
