Alan Robles is not an architect, yet he rose through the ranks to become a leader and trusted innovator within the world's largest architecture firm. No, we have a feeling it's because of his creative abilities, especially designing experiential environments for Gensler's clients. And for his gift of seeing into the future, and exploring how technologies will impact design and the built environment. In this 15-minute talk at BD C's Accelerate Live! conference (May 11, 2017, Chicago), Robles shares how the AEC Giant firm is preparing its project teams and clients for the coming artificial intelligence revolution. Over 24 years exploring the relationship between users and their surroundings, Alan Robles has been creating experience environments for clients and projects of every scale around the world.
