BIM Klaster is a trans-regional network of interactions established on 2 April, 2012, on the initiative of several companies from Małopolskie Province in Poland. The originators of this project were deeply involved with civil engineering, IT and IT technologies. For such individuals, construction is not just a work; it is a real passion. Each of us is not afraid of looking into the future and creating new standards we solemnly believe will become commonplace standards before long.
Today BIM Klaster is an officially registered Association of pro-innovative and highly specialised micro, small, medium and large enterprises from the entire territory of Poland, which are active in construction industry and in ICT, as well as of business and research & development public institutions which support the creativity and innovative drive in the Polish economy.
Mission
Our main purpose is to combine the potential and the competences of the companies and other enterprises in order to implement virtually any building project using the state-of-the-art ICT technologies.
