The Concept research programme

The Concept research programme focuses on Front-end Management of major investment projects. It aims to develop know-how to make more efficient use of resources and improve the effect of major public investments. It is financed by the Norwegian Ministry of Finance.

The programme cooperates with key Norwegian and international professional institutions, universities, research institutes, consulting companies, and departments within our field of work. The target group comprises Ministries and Government agencies, project organisations and professionals in industry. Concept provides opportunities, guidance and sponsoring for graduate students and PhD candidates in its field of competence.
