Impact

Cowen+Partners
is defined by our
four key pillars:

Ambitious Foresight

Cowen+Partners has the VISION, curiosity and tenacity to look beyond today to the social, cultural and economic landscapes of tomorrow.

As the real estate arena changes, we need to rapidly respond the challenges of not just today, but the needs of the communities and socio-economics of the future. Through strong decision making and applied urgency, we save costs, navigate deal fatigue, and avoid decreases in capital. Put simply, we can do more by doing it fast, staying ahead of the curve, led by an in-depth understanding of the long-term socio-economic landscape.

Place Intelligence

We combine our extensive knowledge, data and expertise into a unique INTELLIGENCE that means we can create viable, sustainable communities based on deep research and unique understanding.

Our places work because they’re built on the back of real thinking. About phasing, value, efficiency and delivering for communities, creating places thriving with culture and energy, locality and legacy.

Meaningful Collaboration

Our process is underpinnned by deep COLLABORATION with people and communities, stakeholders and shareholders, and the recognition that nothing of real impact gets done unless we work together in close co-alignment.

There is no higher purpose than working for a shared vision of the future. That’s why we bring together funders, developers, local authorities, advisors and communities under the same roof, meaning we can create places that fulfil specific needs, that are truly inclusive, that serve the widest possible audience. This enables a route forward to the creation of places that deliver for all.

Inspired Urgency

We bring a renewed urgency, a positive energy and a RELENTLESSNESS to projects, as the driving force for real progress on a social, cultural and economic level.

The UK market is stagnating, due to a complex web of issues including inflation, funding, debt, need and statutory regulation. We’re are a practice that understands our responsibility as architects, thinkers and planners to navigate these issues with urgency and clarity, steering a clear path that unlocks the built environment and gets communities and the economy moving again.
