On the tech front, MIND’s vision is a holistic digital strategy: It supports the idea that the precinct may be made up of several buildings, but it’s a single digital ecosystem that encompasses the entire area. This breaks down the barriers of buildings and tenancies to create consistent experiences and reliable services for users no matter where they are in the district.
While AI, IoT and cloud technologies are advancing
the capabilities of individual silos of products within
the autonomous building space, it’s the more recent software defined, containerized architectures in which they are being deployed that’s changing the game for autonomous buildings. The ability to bring together components of different technologies to solve the unique problems and requirements of a building or city in a cost- effective and integrated fashion is creating a new world of possibility for delivering value to customers.
MIND is setting new standards on the sustainability, wellness, safety and productivity fronts, and is well placed to fulfill the legacy of Expo 2015—putting people and planet wellbeing at the top of the podium.
