Digital platforms and business models in the built environment sector
The purpose of this project is to increase the understanding of digital platforms and business models in the built environment sector. Digital platforms are sets of digital technologies that form platform architectures, and these platforms enable new services and business models.

Digital technologies can be used to create better buildings and cities; and more broadly, to raise living standards and protect the planet, as technological innovation is one of the most effective tools for meeting sustainability goals.
However, the introduction of digital technologies is challenging in the fragmented built environment sector. Here, digital platforms are important, as they may efficiently provide centralized information and related services to a wide variety of actors.
There are two important prerequisites for successful platform models: 1) technological integration and interoperability, and 2) business models of value creation and capture, including economic, environmental, and social value. Further, these prerequisites must be fulfilled at the same time for a platform to be successful, and therefore the prerequisites are interrelated. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to increase the understanding of technological integration and business models in digital platforms.
We are looking for new partners for the project, so please contact us if you are interested in platforms and business models.
