Arup Snapshot
Arup’s shared values, like our firm’s name, are derived from the beliefs and convictions of our founder, the engineer and philosopher Sir Ove Arup. He believed that work was only valuable when it had something higher to strive for. We continue to embody that idea – that our work is truly profitable when it shapes a better world.
As a global sustainable development consultancy, our work is focused on producing safe, inclusive and resilient communities, infrastructure and cities. We recognize that sustainable development encompasses many different factors. So, our work also prioritizes environmental regeneration, biodiversity, conservation of resources, stable economic growth and social value.
Our people are working at the forefront of a more sustainable world, developing new approaches to the built and natural environments we all share. As a firm, we continue to make significant commitments that will lead to greater conservation of resources, biodiversity, and energy, in everything we do.
Our aims influence more than just our day-to-day work – they inspire us to look for greater outcomes from everything we do. Our community engagement program is specifically aligned with what we call ‘social usefulness’. One way we demonstrate usefulness is by pursuing projects, initiatives and partnerships which improve the lives of those most in need.
