Industry leaders on your side.
Construct Venture was founded in 2018 by AF Gruppen and OBOS, two of Norway’s leading companies in construction, infrastructure and real estate.
We know the industry, its acronyms and how projects really run. We put all of it to work for founders in ConTech and PropTech, and we aim to move at the same speed as the startups we back.
Meet the team

obos.noIndependent investor, industrial owners.
We make our own investment decisions and back founders for the long run. Our owners add projects and expertise.
Our own decisions
We lead or follow, usually take a board seat or an observer role, and never ask for exclusivity.
Our owners’ projects
Test on live projects with the people who use the product.
The whole value chain
Infrastructure, housing and commercial property, from planning to operations.
Innovative solutions, exceptional teams.
Early stage
Our sweet spot is primarily companies that are in the early commercialisation phase, with a product or service in the final stage of testing and a defined customer base. However, we may also consider companies at both earlier and later stages.
Initial traction
Ideally some traction already: pilots, paying customers or other clear interest.
Strong team
Committed founders with complementary skills and the drive to build a leading global company.
Scalable business model
A market big enough to scale the business relatively quickly, with the potential for an attractive exit.
Room to add value
Relevance for our owners, so our network and domain knowledge can help you succeed.
Nordics and beyond
We are not geographically limited but emphasise Nordic companies. We may also look at unique startups in other geographic regions that see potential in collaborations with Nordic actors.
