With the 2016 Presidential election promising to be one of the most closely-watched in recent history, the IPFA would like to invite the industry's Future Leaders to discuss the political implications on US P3s with the industry's current leaders. While the presumptive nominees for both parties have made campaign promises geared towards growing the economy in general (and there are significant differences between the parties’ plans), there have been very few specific proposals in relation to infrastructure spending. This session will focus on the political landscape with respect to infrastructure policy and how the US infrastructure investment deficit might be addressed in the coming years.
Hosted by Norton Rose Fulbright, and in partnership with InfraAmericas, this FLN breakfast session will run in parallel to the US P3 Infrastructure Forum 2016 and is specifically targeted to the junior practitioners in the industry so as to also provide them with an opportunity to network and discuss the market trends with their peers.
This event is not restricted, both members and non-members of IPFA may register to attend.
The agenda is outlined below.
