McKinsey Global Infrastructure - Rio de Janeiro

            The 2014 Global Infrastructure Initiative 
Rethinking Infrastructure
Rio de Janeiro, May 28-30, 2014

McKinsey & Company’s Global Infrastructure Initiative, convened in partnership with The Abraaj Group and in affiliation with Albright Stonebridge Group, gathers the most senior leaders in infrastructure to drive a critical discussion about the future of infrastructure and how to optimize the required investment of US $3 trillion annually. The Global Infrastructure Initiative is a movement of committed leaders, dedicated to unlocking economic growth and supporting more stable, healthy, and secure communities. We are honored that the Brazilian Development Bank, the Government of the State of Rio de Janeiro, and the City of Rio de Janeiro will be providing institutional support.

Program Overview

Building on the success of the inaugural Global Infrastructure Initiative in Istanbul, the second meeting in Rio de Janeiro will focus on overcoming the recurring obstacles that arise on a global basis, and devising ways to accelerate the timely delivery of essential infrastructure. Unlike other events, the program centers on dialogue and debate, rather than presentations, with the specific objective of forging the insights and relationships required to drive change in the industry.

The agenda will explore the latest data, global best practices, and innovative approaches required to plan, finance, build, and operate the infrastructure needed to support a world of 9 billion people. We will also identify a set of tangible near-term actions that will remove bottlenecks within the infrastructure industry. Participants will take away new ideas and concrete solutions to apply to their business, city, country, or organization.
