Conference Info & Focus

Moving Ahead: PPPs in Europe, Today and Tomorrow
Brussels, October 20th - 21st 2011

It has been a long journey for PPP/PFI, going from novelty to becoming one of the many tools for the provision of public services and infrastructure. The economic crisis has added a new dimension to the calculations, with national budgets being increasibly strained and banks' lending practices changing radically.

PPP/PFI projects are full of success stories, as well as failures. Proper preparations, well founded vfm calculations, appropriate risk pricing and allocation between the public and the private sectors, adequate expertise in the public sector – these are just some of the factors that make or break such projects.

The expert speaker sharing their views at this event will looks at those factors, evaluate the lessons and draw conclusions about the way forward in PPP/PFI. Of course the meeting will also offer an excellent opportunity for networking with industry peers as well as establishing cross-industry contacts.
