Framework for The Abu Dhabi Infrastructure Sector Workshop Outline The meltdown in the west will continue to attract expatriates to Abu Dhabi, who have taken a note of recent political and financial instability in the wider GCC region. Increased influx of expatriates will put further pressure on delivering high quality infrastructure at a much faster pace. The volatility in the oil prices does not guarantee petrodollars any more.

Be a part of this seminar based on real-life case studies to understand: • The benefits and risks attached to PPP procurement vis-a-vis the traditional procurement model • What constitutes an efficient procurement model • Implications of changing financing landscape in the wake of credit crunch • Relevant PPP structures for Abu Dhabi Who Should Attend This seminar is for Government, Procurers, Concessionaires, Financiers and Contractors who will deliver infrastructure for Abu Dhabi.

Benefits Of Attending • Participate in discussions and exchange ideas with top tier infrastructure professionals • Find out how the latest deals have been structured • Understand the challenges ahead and know what it will take to deliver efficient and value for money infrastructure projects in Abu Dhabi • Take away information on key infrastructure projects across sectors planned for Abu Dhabi Seminar Leaders Uilleam Cameron, Partner - Global Infrastructure and Projects Group, KPMG Uilleam has over 20 years of public procurement experience and has been working with public sector clients worldwide on the financing of major infrastructure projects.
