Monsters of BIM

As you may have noticed I am part of the Band who organises the Bim Day Out

What started as an innocent idea” wouldn’t  it be nice” to have a small BIM event right here in Perth.

The overwhelming response to our innocent idea has taken us all by surprise.

This has become a little BIM Monster that kept on growing.

for a moment we contemplated to change our Event to the “Monsters of BIM”

Anyhow we have now an huge selection of who is who in the  BIM Zone and you would hate to miss out.

So if you are a Student, Architect, Builder, Consultant, QS, Specification writer, or sell flowers to construction workers

You know where you should be on the 18^th and 19^th of July
