What’s BIM keeping you?
is very glad to be able to announce that the official MELBIM, BIM User Group for Melbourne, has finally been launched. See the new website for details of the very first event to be held this month on February 24th at RMIT.
Charmaine and I are glad that this important piece of the national BIM dialogue has been established, and are happy to have kept the BIMchairs warm for you all.
Best of BIMluck.
“It’s been a while in the making, but MelBIM is officially here. Our first event will be held at the iconic RMIT Swanston Academic Building (SAB), CBD Campus on Tuesday 24th February, commencing at 5:00PM. We’re thrilled to announce Aconex as our event sponsor.
Attendance is FREE, drinks and food will be provided (yes, including ‘BIMbeers’) but REGISTRATION IS ESSENTIAL. All attendees are required to register prior to the day of the event via the Registration area below.
This is truly an event not to be missed. Whether you’re a BIM Manager, Architect, Engineer, Contractor, Facility Manager, Manufacturer, Project Manager or anyone else wanting to learn and share information about BIM, MelBIM events have something for everyone.”
