The BCI construction media group reports future construction projects in the Asia Pacific region.

In doing so, BCI Central conducts more than 250,000 face-to-face and phone interviews with architects, developers, engineers and contractors every year, reporting on approximately USD400 billion worth of projects. Besides promoting efficiency and transparency through its research services, BCI also publishes the award-winning FuturArc journal, Construction+ magazine and other architectural books.
