Industry Insight at NRF 2025: Mastercard travel insights - Asia's retail shift

Artificial intelligence is starting to reshape the built environment — from how buildings are designed to how they are operated and maintained.

With Singapore pushing for greater use of AI, robotics and digital tools in the sector, what does this transformation actually look like in practice?

On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks with Alfred Fox, Chief Executive, Integrated Solutions, SJ Group about where AI is already delivering results across infrastructure and building operations.

Learn how technologies such as digital twins, predictive maintenance and AI-optimised energy systems are helping buildings run more efficiently, why data and digital infrastructure are becoming critical foundations for smarter cities, and how AI could change the way urban infrastructure is managed in the years ahead.

Industries today are increasingly testing ideas in digital environments before anything is physically built. Often called virtual twins, these simulations help companies refine designs and avoid costly mistakes early.

On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks to Sharon Toh, Vice President, AP South, Dassault Systemes to find out how this approach is changing the way industries innovate, and where is momentum emerging across Asia.

Industry Insight: What it means when industries design and build digitally

As Singapore sharpens its focus on food security, sustainability, and supply-chain resilience, the infrastructure supporting the food industry is undergoing a quiet transformation.

The Gourmet Xchange (GXC) is Singapore’s largest strata-titled food facility and the first integrated waterfront food hub in central Singapore’s Kallang district, reflecting deeper structural shifts through a purpose-built food infrastructure in a land-scarce city. 

On Industry Insight, Lynlee Foo speaks to Ronald Tay, CEO of CapitaLand Development (Singapore) to find out what this signals for food operators, investors, and policymakers watching the future of Singapore’s food ecosystem.
