Venue development, advisory and investment company Oak View Group has been selected to lead the construction and operation of a new arena in the Austrian capital of Vienna.
OVG has been named as the ‘best bidder’ for the project following an 18-month process led by the City of Vienna’s Wien Holding company. The process was set up to identify a strategic partner capable of planning, constructing, financing and operating the arena.
