Innovation procurement for new production of cheaper housing
The costs for new construction are often a recurring argument why the rents in a rental apartment or for new production of condominiums are so high. As it becomes more difficult to borrow at the same time as amortization requirements are raised, housing construction in the metropolitan regions will decrease. We need to rethink how we build and what we build that makes housing prices lower. The challenge is how can we do that in practice. How can we produce something that according to all experts can not be done? This is where innovation procurement can come in. How can we make it possible?

The costs for new production are often a recurring argument why the rents in the rental apartment or for new production of tenant-owned apartments become so high. As it becomes more difficult to borrow at the same time as the amortization requirements are raised, housing construction in the metropolitan areas is reduced. We need to re-think how we build and what we build that makes housing prices lower. The challenge is how can we do this in practice. How can we produce something that, according to all experts, cannot be done? This is where innovation procurement can come in. How can we make it possible?
To understand more about what innovation procurement is for something and how it is available, read in the attached pdf from vinnova. If you have ideas about projects that could be relevant, you are welcome to post them here or if you have thoughts and experiences about the process and what obstacles exist. The goal is that we will hopefully be able to start a process that leads to an innovation procurement for cheaper housing starting somewhere in Sweden shortly.
Share your ideas and knowledge about how we can get started!
