A Surge in Regional Construction
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is witnessing a remarkable boom in construction, fueled by grand projects in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Recent data indicates that construction project awards in the GCC reached $264.4 billion in 2024, a six percent increase from the previous year. The landscape is further energized by ambitious national visions like Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 strategy, both of which prioritize alongside digital innovation.
Nemetschek’s involvement at Big 5 Global 2025 serves as a testament to its unwavering dedication to this growth narrative. With technologies like AI-driven design optimization and digital twins for asset management, Nemetschek and its brand partners are at the helm of revolutionizing project delivery and operational efficiency—integral components of creating truly sustainable infrastructures.
Empowering Future-Ready Cities
Muayad Simbawa, Managing Director of Nemetschek Arabia, elaborates on the ambitions set forth by regional governments. “Across the GCC, we are seeing bold aims to develop future-ready cities that embrace innovation, sustainability, and efficiency,” he notes. “At Nemetschek Arabia, our mission is to empower organizations with the necessary tools and insights to meet these national visions—enhancing productivity and fostering collaboration.” In this way, Nemetschek positions itself as the preferred digital transformation partner for landmark projects across the Middle East.

Beyond its exhibition, Nemetschek Group is also taking part in pivotal discussions at the Big 5 Global Leaders’ Summit. Nezet is set to engage in a panel discussion titled “Leadership Perspectives: Rethinking Innovation for Real Impact,” which will address how digital tools and data-driven approaches can bolster organizational resilience amid global disruptions.
Additionally, Charles Sheridan, Chief Data and AI Officer, will host a keynote presentation at the Big 5 FutureTech Summit. His session, titled “An AI Revolution: Smarter Tools, Better Insights, Stronger Buildings,” promises to unveil how Nemetschek is pioneering a new wave of AI-infused tools that unite workflows across the entire design-to-build lifecycle—shedding light on how to derive meaningful insights from integrated data.
