Emerging Markets - Opportunities and threats for Major Projects

Seminar Members Only Event

Investment in major projects to enhance built environmental assets, transform public services and exploit new technologies, continues at pace as governments around the world accelerate their drive towards a return to post COVID-19 growth levels. Yet alongside the expected geographic regions and economic sectors, we are increasingly now seeing new emerging areas that major project professionals are either being asked to work in or will certainly soon find themselves part of. 

This session will explore these emerging market areas for major projects and help businesses and professionals involved in the delivery of major projects gain insight into the opportunities and challenges on the horizon so as to paint a picture of where they should focus attention over the next 12-24 months.

We will examine the emerging geographic opportunities for growth in major projects before moving on to highlight a number of specific markets which are now emerging with funding as key areas for exciting major projects activities.

The event registration is now closed.
