CONEXPO-CON/AGG announced that Dave Kranzler, Director of AWS IoT Services, will speak on the show’s new Ground Breakers Stage, which highlights leading innovators and industry thinkers. Dave will present on Thursday, 5 March, at 10 a.m., focusing on how AI, automation and connected technologies are transforming construction.
“We’re thrilled to welcome AWS as a Ground Breakers Stage keynote at this year’s show,” said Dana Wuesthoff, show director at CONEXPO-CON/AGG. “Digital transformation is changing how the world builds, and we know our attendees will be eager to hear from AWS about the opportunities to reimagine construction efficiency, safety and sustainability.”
