BLOXHUB Groups

Building a Collaborative Future for Urban Innovation

The foundation for a more promising urban future lies in forging reliable partnerships that transcend disciplinary boundaries and bridge the gap between private and public sectors. BLOXHUB Groups is a dynamic initiative crafted to fuel knowledge exchange among diverse stakeholders entrenched within urban development. With an unwavering aim to elevate the industry’s innovative prowess, BLOXHUB Groups is a joint venture between BLOXHUB and Byggesocietet.

Our goal

BLOXHUB Groups isn’t just a concept; it’s an interactive platform tailored exclusively for BLOXHUB’s members. This platform empowers them to amplify their network, uncover latent business prospects, and actively engage in a curated, professional forum. This dynamic forum is a breeding ground for insightful discussions, profound collaborations, and the collaborative evolution of the industry itself.

OUR GROUPS

The BLOXHUB Groups initiative aims to facilitate business development and exchange expertise among its members. Each themed group will comprise a dedicated steering committee of 3-4 individuals and a broader assembly of 15-20 regular members. These groups will convene for meetings throughout the year, with the specific frequency being determined by the members themselves. Additionally, once annually, the entire group will participate in a special event, providing a platform to disseminate the valuable knowledge and insights generated.

Nature Based Solutions

Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) are an innovative approach to urban and landscape planning that harness natural processes to enhance ecosystems, resilience, biodiversity, and resource efficiency. By integrating natural systems at various scales—from regional to building level—NBS transform traditional “gray” infrastructure into greener, more livable spaces.

Incorporating features like green roofs, urban wetlands, and tree-lined streets, NBS promote biodiversity and tackle challenges like flood control, urban heat reduction, and carbon sequestration. These solutions create healthier spaces and support long-term sustainability in urban and rural areas.

Developed through collaboration among landscape architects, urban planners, engineers, and ecologists, NBS envision a future where human progress aligns with ecological balance, allowing society to thrive in harmony with nature.
