Infrastructure Summit 2007

November 13, 2007
Building a Better Tomorrow with Private Capital
New York, NY

Public money is no longer so keen to fund public works. Tax cuts and low interest rates in recent years have helped create a financing shortfall on the order of $1.6 trillion for infrastructure projects in the United States alone, and Europe is suffering a similar shortfall. Airports, public transportation systems, bridges, toll roads and power grids have fallen into disrepair or seen usage increase to the point of overwhelming the system. The disconnect spells an opportunity for private equity firms with infrastructure know-how and the ability to raise the huge sums required for these capital-intensive endeavors. The Private Equity Analyst Infrastructure Summit combines Private Equity Analyst's unparalleled editorial coverage of private equity and limited partner investment strategies with Dow Jones' global information network to chart the course of this rapidly developing private investment opportunity.

The Private Equity Analyst Infrastructure Summit will focus on private investment in public infrastructure projects - including transportation, sanitation, water management, energy generation and transmission, and other capital-intensive municipal projects - both in the U.S. and abroad, with a particular focus on how institutional investors and private equity firms can manage these investments to minimize the risk and maximize returns. We will cover Brownfield (existing) and Greenfield (new/developing) investments and how private equity firms and limited partners can best capitalize on these opportunities.

Join U.S. and European financial professionals, institutional investors, investment bankers, lenders and debt fund managers, government officials, public pension fund managers, engineering and architectural firm executives, management and construction consultants, lawyers and accountants at The Private Equity Analyst Infrastructure Summit. We'll investigate the opportunities that this burgeoning area of development provides, while also identifying risks and providing a network of leading industry experts.
