Together we’ll shape the future

This is 
Construction City

Construction City is a new type of meeting place for the construction, engineering and real estate industries. A place where collaboration, innovation and sustainability are at the center – and where future solutions are shaped, developed and shared.

The story behind Construction City

In 2016, the executive directors of OBOS and AF Gruppen joined forces to create the futures workplace, as well as a cluster community for the construction, engineering and real estate industry.

The industry is experiencing increased pressure from foreign competitors, and find themselves geographically dispersed and decentralized, so much so that it is challenging to build shared innovation capacity and competitiveness. 

The discussions led to the decision to co-locate the future headquarters of the major corporations. OBOS owned a suitable 120-acre plot of land at Ulven in Oslo – unusually large given the short distance to the city center. The meeting resulted in an ambition that was far greater than they first imagined:
