4th PPP MENA 2024 | Great Minds Event Management | 3 June 2024 | TBA, Dubai - UAE

This event is a crucial platform for discussing economic and social developments for the region, bringing together policymakers, investors, EPCs and business leaders, and other stakeholders to exchange ideas, foster collaborations, and capitalize on the growing opportunities in the region.

In recent times, PPP has become an essential model utilized across the MENA region and has grown significantly in several industries, most notably the energy, infrastructure, healthcare, transportation, and education sectors. PPP agreements totaling to $69.6 billion are now being carried out in the region, and over 155 major contract awards for PPP projects are anticipated in 2024. As these partnerships involve collaboration between governmental bodies and private sector entities to finance, build, and operate projects, PPPs are now viewed as an effective way to leverage the strengths of both sectors, thereby improving efficiency, innovation, and service delivery.

Over the years, PPP projects have played a critical role in infrastructure development, driving economic growth, improving service delivery, and bringing about risk sharing, resulting in more resilient and sustainable projects. The event plays a pivotal role in discussing PPP initiatives, opportunities, and broader issues concerning economic development and social progress. The forum offers an exclusive avenue for showcasing new projects, PPP opportunities, infrastructure needs and how to leverage the strengths of both the public and private sectors and foster successful partnerships.
