The AEC Landscape Is Changing

AI Is Rewriting the Rules of Business

Projects move faster, clients expect more, and AI is reshaping how teams design, plan, and deliver, pushing firms to adapt faster than ever.

It’s not about keeping up with technology — it’s about finding the time, tools, and guidance to make it work.

We Grow Better, Together

What our members are saying

Real Firms, Real Transformation

Landev Consulting has been a part of the Archipelago community since the early days. Brian and his team have connected us with industry professionals who have strengthened our growing network and supported collaboration across disciplines. This has significantly improved our workflow and the level of service we provide to our clients.

Founder and P. Engineer | Landev Consulting | QPI Developement

As a one-man band I can’t master everything, so dealing with specific contractual issues to address uncertainty and risk can be time consuming. Hearing how others approach this challenge makes a big difference.

Philippe St-Germain

Founder | PSG Ocean | Coastal Engineering

Archipelago creates the space where we can explore how AI is really changing our industry. It’s where technical discussions become practical insights.

Bruno Mendonca

Excited for what the future will bring! I’m glad to be part of this innovative and amazing technology, and to experience the knowledge Archipelago brings to the group.
