Regionalisation 

Our vision for COWI is that it should evolve from being a large, dominant parent company with a large number of 'satellites' into a group made up of a closeknit, mutually committed network - a One Company Network - of several regional and equally ranked consultancy establishments.

The regions will be built up in the forthcoming years through a process of organic development and acquisitions. The regional units and our specialist units will be integrated in a network which is bound together by common goals, values, procedures and business systems, knowledge sharing and employee secondment or pooling.

Five regions

COWI's regionalisation so far extends to five regions:

  • Denmark
  • Norway
  • Central and Eastern Europe
  • The Arabian Gulf
  • Africa

In Denmark and Norway, where we are already the leading consultant, COWI will develop its business units through organic growth and strategic acquisitions.

In East EU, the Arabian Gulf and Africa, where we have a long-established presence, we will amalgamate the existing companies into regional units.
