Storforum (Large Forum) was organised by The Network for sustainable construction and management, in collaboration with Sweden Green Building Council.

Mauritz Knuts from the Vasa Region's Development Company VASEK in Finland made a presentation; the Renovation Centre project, UPAB, presented Green Parking Contracts and Stina Sjöblom from the municipality of Umeå described how land distribution works in practice.
