Over the next 25 years it is widely recognised that Ireland needs to invest in its Infrastructure to cater for:
- forecast growth in population;
- demographic changes;
- our developing towns and cities; and
- the evolution of the way we work.
Our panel will discuss the ways in which private finance and investment can contribute to addressing Ireland’s 2040 ambition.
