In this episode of the EdUp Smart Space podcast, I discuss the critical importance of effective technology planning in higher education facilities. He identifies common challenges such as siloed teams, stakeholder disconnect, and the pitfalls of future-proofing.

I then present solutions through an integrated planning approach, emphasizing collaboration among all stakeholders. He outlines the expected results of these strategies, including reduced project risk, enhanced user satisfaction, and long-term operational success.

Finally, I envision a future of adaptive learning ecosystems where technology seamlessly integrates with educational experiences.
