Abstract
This is the inaugural address of Tim Broyd, who became the 152nd president of the Institution of Civil Engineers on 1 November 2016. Innovation and technological advances have been at the heart of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) for years, and they are the themes on which my career has been based. This address allows me to set out my thoughts on a subject about which I am passionate: the key challenges and opportunities that face society, and how the civil engineering profession, supported by ICE, must change to be up to task of tackling them. I will set out how digital engineering can transform people’s lives, and how this agenda can help civil engineers to deliver, on time, at reduced cost and with a quality and precision that changes the way they operate and manage truly smart infrastructure.
