What brought us together

Bygglarm 2024 combined professional gatherings with practical demonstrations and meetings between industry participants. Reuse and waste management opened the programme before participants moved on to construction logistics, procurement and technology in projects.

Contech Arena brought together suppliers, consultants, academia and contractors. The main event featured pitches and music. The professional programme ran from Wednesday to Friday; the associated Molde Ølfestival programme continued on Saturday.
