Sven-Åke Wikers

Arena development – Multi-use functionality – Concept Design – Preliminary studies – Programming – Feasibility Studies – BIM models (3D-5D) – Clash Controls - Sports grounds I have completed almost 60 arena assignments in Switzerland, France, Norway, Denmark and Sweden and am one of Europe’s leading experts in Arena & Stadium Development. I am used to working with different consultants, architects, contractors and have a large network I use when setting up project organizations. As a former professional athlete and later a member of the Swedish National Alpine team, a former CEO of a top-tier ice hockey club and with 20+ years in the hotel and food & beverage industry (including arranging numerous events) I have a unique insight into what it takes to create a well-planned and well-functioning multi-purpose arena / multi-purpose stadium. No two projects are the same; however the planning and feasibility phase are always crucial to the development process of a new aena or stadium. Strict planning will make the difference in all projects. By working with BIM modeling (3-5D) that provides 20% more information compared to conventional drawings and saves up to 15% due to its accuracy I provide each project with calculations that are strong and accurate. ******************************************** “Sven-Åke Wikers and ArenaProjekt have made a significant contribution to the investigative work undertaken for Oslo’s bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
