1 Financing in the Western Balkans & Southeast Europe Overcoming obstacles to deliver projects in emerging markets October 2012 Dubrovnik Palace Hotel Join leading stakeholders in a dynamic networking and learning environment about the future of Transport Infrastructure in the Western Balkans and SEE. Conference As Europe reels from financial crisis, the Western Balkans and Southeast Europe are an increasingly attractive destination for international investment. Fundamentally, there is a need for substantial infrastructure development in this region, including roads, airports, seaports and rail. Despite the opportunities, there are a number of serious obstacles impeding project development, including complex legal frameworks, lack of transparency and fair competition, misconceptions over the value and use of Public Private Partnerships (PPP), inconsistent and unfair risk sharing obligations, lack of political will and many others. Associate Sponsors Our 2012 event will address these obstacles and risks, providing a platform for industry leaders and local stakeholders to debate and overcome them. Speakers and participants will include National and Local government, international infrastructure funds and financiers, leading construction firms and concessionaires, regional advisors and legal firms.
