Diggin discussions: From open building data to AI innovation: How ecosystem partnerships turn data into impact
november 6 @ 08:15 – 09:00
What does it take to turn building data into meaningful innovation?
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly accessible, the limiting factor is often no longer the AI itself, but access to high-quality data, semantic context, documentation, and industry expertise.
In this session, Schneider Electric and FrostLogic share the story of how an ecosystem partnership transformed open and structured building data into advanced AI-powered building analytics and predictive maintenance capabilities. Through a real-world collaboration, we explore how interoperable data models, machine-readable documentation, and shared domain knowledge dramatically reduced development barriers and accelerated innovation.
The discussion offers practical lessons for property owners, technology providers, researchers, and innovators interested in the future of digital buildings, and demonstrates why the most successful digital ecosystems are built not only on technology, but on openness, collaboration, and trust.
