3rd Annual Global Infrastructure Projects 2010

Evaluating new developments and global trends in transportation infrastructure and sustainable construction in order to identify possible collaborations and capitalise on future investment opportunities

The global infrastructure industry is currently experiencing exponential growth with substantial opportunities to establish relationships and presence in emerging and existing markets. Governments are making substantial investments in new infrastructure and upgrading existing projects as part of various stimulus packages to fast track the road to economic recovery. Nearly all infrastructure sectors present opportunities with transportation infrastructure taking up most of the expenditure.

The success of new projects will be in part defined by its integration within existing infrastructures. Multimodal connectivity and sustainable development of transportation infrastructure will be fundamental to getting the most out of investments. There is a strong awareness of building green and using intelligent materials and technologies to ensure long term sustainability and maximise potential economies of scale. With a continued string of developments in infrastructure especially in transportation, it is vital for organisations to identify emerging trends and analyse future prospects in order to best explore and benefit from possible collaboration and future investment opportunities to gain an edge in this highly competitive market.
