Infrastructure Investments – A Playing Field for Sustainability?

---

The question we will raise during this conference will be: are investments in strategic infrastructure a driver for innovation and sustainability or is it the other way around?

With its “Recovery Plan”, a strategic investment program, Belgium aims to accelerate transition towards a more sustainable, smart and inclusive economy, while also enhancing social, economic and climate resilience. Will the public sector with its ambitions truly be a key driver towards sustainable and smart infrastructure works? How are the sustainability goals for instance translated into the selection process?  

And what about the implementation of sustainability goals in infra works by the private sector? 

What does this transition mean for the investors? How can they contribute?

We invite all seniorities to this event to share your views with experienced representatives from the public and private sector.

Speakers:

- Moderator: Helga Van Peer, Lawyer and on-executive board member, TINC and SFPIM

- Thomas Dermine, State Secretary for Science Policy, Recovery Program and Strategic Investments, Belgian Federal Government

- Steven Bouckaert, General Manager Concessions,  Deme Group

- Werner Decrem, Group Manager Infrastructure and Real Estate, PMV

- Laurence Gacoin, CEO, C-Energy 

- Stephanie De Clercq, Head of Sustainable Finance, KBC Securities
