Arcadis Retains Second Place on Coveted World Architecture 100 List
The latest accolade reflects Arcadis’ continued strength in architecture and urbanism, driven by a laser focus on creating exceptional, sustainable environments, innovating and investing in people.
Arcadis, a global leader in intelligence-driven sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions, has been named as the second largest architecture firm in the world in the prestigious World Architecture 100 (WA100) 2025 list.

It also invested heavily in its people with strategic hires across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom to drive advancement in these key regions.
