Independent and interdependent

Our founder, Ove Arup, started an Arup practice in London in 1946. With Ove's pioneering spirit and the hard work of dedicated partners and staff, the one practice grew into many as additional practices joined the Arup fold.

One of those practices developed into the global entity we know today as Arup Group.

In addition, we still have a number of organisationally independent practices in Brunei, Malaysia, Sabah and Zimbabwe.
