Wednesday, June 24th, 2026 – Anaheim, CA – IronOrbit, a leading provider of GPU-accelerated cloud services and managed IT solutions, today shared its key observations from the AIA Conference on Architecture & Design 2026.
The event brought together architecture, engineering, construction (AEC), and manufacturing organizations from across the country, ranging from small firms to large enterprises. Throughout the conference, Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerged as a dominant topic, with attendees focused on how technology will reshape design, engineering, project delivery, and business operations in the years ahead.
Conversations on the show floor consistently centered around cloud adoption, reducing reliance on on-premises infrastructure, improving security and compliance, lowering hardware costs, and supporting increasingly demanding BIM, rendering, and AI-driven workloads. As AEC firms continue to adopt technologies such as AI-assisted design, digital twins, advanced visualization, and data-driven project delivery, many are reevaluating whether traditional on-premises environments can meet future business requirements.
“The industry is actively evaluating how AI and modern cloud technologies can improve agility, collaboration, and long-term scalability,” said Ayman Ayoub, CCO of IronOrbit. “Firms are looking for practical ways to modernize their IT environments while reducing complexity and capital expenditures.”
The discussions reinforced IronOrbit’s commitment to helping AEC firms digitally transform through secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure, and managed IT services designed to support the next generation of design, engineering, and AI-enabled workflows.
