Abstract

With today's multi-faceted development challenges and financial constraints, governments across the globe are turning to Public Private Partnerships (P3s) to establish a new venue for collaboration and to deliver infrastructure services successfully. When handled effectively, P3s are believed to boost economic growth and alter the landscape of government contracting. However, it is important for both public and private entities to keep themselves abreast with the recent developments surrounding P3s as the risks associated with these partnerships may bring significant implications.

In this two-hour live webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group will provide the audience with an overview of the latest trends and critical issues with respect to Public Private Partnerships. Speakers will also offer helpful insights on how to develop and implement effective strategies in identifying and mitigating risks.
