Kicking off 2026, this edition brings the ATN community together at the Epic Games Innovation Lab, creating a space for conversation, collaboration, and shared exploration across architecture and technology.

The event focuses on the innovators utilising and experimenting with Unreal in AEC space. We explored how real-time technologies are being applied beyond gaming, from digital twins and participatory design tools to interactive configurators and immersive visualisation, these approaches are opening up new ways to design, simulate, and communicate architecture.

Bringing together architects, engineers, and technologists, the talks offers a range of perspectives on how real-time tools are being integrated into practice - and what this means for the future of the built environment.
