Creating Bankable Transport PPPs in Africa

Creating Bankable Transport PPPs in Africa

Delivering Africa's transport infrastructure requires well-prepared projects, supported by strong institutions and structured in a way that gives investors confidence while meeting public needs.In this webinar, ConstructAfrica, in collaboration with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), brings together experts from across the infrastructure sector to discuss what makes transport public-private partnerships (PPPs) bankable. Using Kenya's experience as a starting point, the panel will explore the lessons emerging from the country's PPP journey, the role of policy and project preparation, and how governments, investors and development finance institutions can work together to deliver successful transport projects across Africa.Whether you work in government, infrastructure investment, project development, consulting, contracting or professional services, this session will provide practical insights into the factors shaping the next generation of transport PPPs on the continent.
