Impactful Policy Frameworks
UK Building Safety Act 2022
The UK Building Safety Act 2022 introduces a new regulatory framework for the design, construction, and occupation of high-rise residential buildings, focusing on safety and accountability throughout the building lifecycle.
This act will drive demand for precise digital twins and highly accurate visualizations for compliance, documentation, and stakeholder communication for ThinkLab's clients.
UK's Net Zero Strategy (2021)
The UK's Net Zero Strategy outlines plans to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050, impacting all sectors including construction and real estate through new energy efficiency standards and sustainable design mandates.
This policy will increase the need for visualizations that effectively communicate sustainable design features and energy performance for architectural projects, creating new opportunities for ThinkLab.
UK Digital Economy Act 2017
While not new, the Digital Economy Act 2017 continues to underpin regulations related to digital infrastructure, data sharing, and online accessibility, which indirectly impacts digital content creation and distribution.
This act influences the technical standards and data privacy considerations for ThinkLab's digital and interactive experiences, particularly regarding client data and online platform use.
