About SCP
The International Society for Smart Construction and Production (SCP) has its origins in the Curtin Advanced Technologies Research and Innovation Alliance (CATRINA), established in 2015. CATRINA was dedicated to pioneering advanced technologies in the construction and production industries. From 2020 to 2024, the society evolved through the Asian Institute of Engineering Brain, further expanding its focus and reach. In 2024, the organization rebranded as SCP, broadening its mission to encompass a global perspective and fostering innovation, collaboration, and knowledge dissemination across academia, industry, and government sectors.
