We connect Architects, engineers,
local governments and developers in the building industry across national borders.

Flying Ducks facilitates international micro-exchanges architecturally designed for professionals in the building industry. For now in Denmark, The Netherlands and Austria, enabling hands-on transfer of expertise in circularity and sustainable construction. In this way we will contribute to the acceleration of the green transition.

Flying ducks -  The idea of flying along


Purpose: Flying Ducks is about moving forward together guided by experience, supported by a strong network, and always open to new horizons.

Formation: Like a formation of flying ducks - moving together, sharing direction, benefitting from the slipstream and taking turns to lead - we believe in collective movement across national borders.

Engagement: In each exchange, our network is active - we pro-actively engage and "fly alongside" both the applicant and the host, opening doors that would otherwise remain closed.
