WIS 2015 Overview

IJGlobal is the market leading intelligence service detailing global infrastructure market activity and delivering real-time insight that underpins investment decisions. The World Infrastructure Summit is part of a global conference portfolio of flagship project, energy and infrastructure finance Summits across all global markets.

WIS Main Conference – Tuesday 29^th – Wednesday 30^th September

Major infrastructure sponsors, government, private financiers and investors return to WIS year after year to find out how projects are getting done and pinpoint where real finance can be found for upcoming projects, refinancing and investment in assets.

Government PPP Workshop – Monday 28^th September

The PPP workshop brings together global government agencies to define best practise and a future framework for PPPs. The workshop is limited to senior representatives from Government and PPP agencies who define the agenda in advance by submitting their questions to the chair. The workshop will feature a recent PPP case study to be assessed by participants and from which experience can be gathered to apply to other markets. Participants value the opportunity to share expertise with their international counterparts in a closed door environment.

Welcome Cocktail Reception - Monday 28^th September 18:00-19:30

The Welcome Cocktail will provide those government representatives who have attended the workshop and WIS attendees arriving in advance of the main conference an early opportunity to get to know their peers. This will be an informal reception.

Global Awards Ceremony - Tuesday 29^th September

At WIS 2015 we are very pleased to be able to celebrate the industry’s finest practitioners with the IJGlobal Awards. Throughout Spring 2015 IJGlobal will be hosting separate regional awards ceremonies to honour the best projects and firms in the regions, including the Americas, Asia-Pacific, The Middle East, Europe and Africa. The Winners from each region will then be put into a further contest, which will consider their league table positioning and response from an industry poll, to identify the overall World Infrastructure Leaders. These will be announced at the WIS reception and the winners honoured.
