 Or call: +65 6838 4563 | PEI Media and Infrastructure Investor invite you to the 2nd annual Infrastructure Investor: Asia forum, where infrastructure investors, fund managers, government officials and other relevant stakeholders will gather to discuss all the relevant issues relating to investing in the Asian infrastructure space. Following the success of the inaugural forum last year, the 2nd Infrastructure Investor: Asia will once again bring together the most prolific players and industry leaders to reveal where and what in the region offer the best opportunities.
Infrastructure in Asia is evolving into an asset class in its own right, offering attractive long-term returns to a growing number of investors. Up until now, governments from most parts of Asia have financed infrastructure developments themselves, but the scale of development required to fuel the region's growth has meant that governments are now looking to private sector investments. Asia now presents a wealth of opportunities across sectors for investors.
Infrastructure Investor: Asia 2010 is a unique platform that will help you and your business to understand this space, from due diligence, to acquiring, to managing, and finally liquidating the assets. Who are the ideal local partners to help achieve your goals? How do financial investors forge more equitable and sustainable relationships with government and stakeholders? Which sectors make sense and what countries are the hotspots for infrastructure play? Keynote speaker confirmed:
