BimTube's Mission
We aim to build everyone’s digital knowledge with content and conversations to inspire and instigate 'Better Information Management' to enable better decisions, better infrastructure, better services, and better outcomes for our social, economic, and environmental infrastructure.
Background
The podcast's theme revolves around 'Better Information Management'—exploring how Digital, Data, and Technology enable other sectors, domains, activities, initiatives, and outcomes.
Audience
The target audience comprises individuals who are not exclusively engaged in 'Digital & Data', Information Technology (IT), or Information Management (IM) roles. Our goal is to impart an understanding of some of the benefits and outcomes that Digital, Data, and Technology can offer and provide guidance on where to learn more and get involved.
