Meet the SpeckleCon 2025 speakers
Join us in London on the 7th of November for an exploration of how Speckle is transforming AEC workflows through real-world implementations from leading firms like Gensler, Multiconsult, Stantec, and Royal Haskoning.
From machine learning-powered analysis and construction data pipelines to performance-driven design and seamless fabrication workflows, discover how Speckle is revolutionizing traditional AEC practices and creating new possibilities for collaboration and innovation in the built environment.
SpeckleCON talks
Enabling citizen developers through JupyterHub
Rami Evans & James Abrey
Rami Evans (Lead Developer BU Infrastructure) & James Abrey (Computational Designer) at Haskoning and will present "Enabling citizen developers through JupyterHub."
Rami will explore how his company enables citizen developers to start their programming journey and build client-ready apps integrable with Speckle through an online environment that removes barriers like virtual environments and package management.
From design to assembly: Seamless data integration for segmented timber shells
Lasath Siriwardena
Lasath Siriwardena is a Research Associate at ICD and will present "From design to assembly: Seamless data integration for segmented timber shells."

Keep it short and simple
Emiliano Lupo
Emiliano Lupo is a Bim Manager at HENN and will present "Keep it short and simple."
Emiliano will be demonstrating practical examples of using Speckle for interoperability and data visualization. He will demonstrate how adding Speckle to design pipelines can be a straightforward and effective approach, eliminating unnecessary complexity.
From data to decisions: Scaling early-phase simulations with Speckle in MC Group
Jan Buthke
Jan Buthke is the Digital Innovation Lead at LINK Arkitektur, and will present "From Data to Decisions: Scaling early-phase simulations with Speckle in MC Group."
Jan will demonstrate how MC Group builds a cross-organizational simulation network using Speckle for urban transformation analysis, showcasing structured collaboration, custom dashboards, and visualization of simulation results, including wind, daylight, energy, and rainwater data through color-coded meshes and dynamic charts.
Automated design workflows with Python and Speckle
Morten Engen
Morten Engen is a Civil Engineer at Multiconsult. He will present on "Automated design workflows with Python and Speckle".
Morten will be discussing the transition from Excel-based workflows to Python-driven automation and the development of custom Speckle classes for data-driven design processes.
Building a connected pipeline: Using Speckle from design to construction
Murat Melek
Murat Melek is a Director at Suffolk Construction and will present "Building a connected Pipeline: Using Speckle from design to construction."
Murat will demonstrate how his company uses Speckle, Specklepy, and Speckle Automate to build autonomous data pipelines across design, estimation, and scheduling phases, showcasing a fileless, API-driven approach that reduces manual handoffs and enables faster decision-making.
Machine learning for daylight compliance: Democratizing performance-driven design
Libny Pacheco
Libny Pacheco is the Co-Founder of Upskillers, and will present "Machine learning for daylight compliance: Democratizing performance-driven design."
Libny will showcase their ML-powered daylight validation tool deployed via Speckle Automate, demonstrating both open (IFC upload) and commercial (Revit/Archicad + multi-scale analysis) deployment models with actionable use cases for municipalities and architects.
Unifying reporting across disconnected teams with Speckle
Alaseng Serape
Alaseng Serape is an Architect and Urban Design Specialist at Losinger Marazzi and will present "Unifying reporting across disconnected teams with Speckle".
Alaseng will present how their company uses Speckle as a common ground for disconnected teams working across different tools in Switzerland, demonstrating unified dashboards and custom analysis that bridge teams using Revit and Archicad without forcing standardization or compromising workflow autonomy.
