TRANSFORMING CITIES: PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS (P3)
Tuesday, March 11, 2014
Wharton/Penn Alumni and real estate development professionals are invited to
attend this symposium exploring the role of public private partnerships
(P3s) in the delivery of social infrastructure projects and addressing
current infrastructure challenges. Industry experts will share best
practices for bringing together the public and private sectors through
innovative approaches to financing, developing, operating and maintaining
infrastructure projects. Two panels will discuss the key current issues. The
first panel will discuss social infrastructure P3s and the second will focus
on the opportunities and challenges of P3 delivery in California.
Questions to be addressed include:
- Is social infrastructure the next
wave in the P3 sector?
- What are the prospects for hospital and water/waste water P3s in the
short-to-medium term?
- What are the challenges posed by social infrastructure P3s and how
do they differ from other P3 sectors?
- California Experience: discussion of recent P3 transactions,
“lessons learned” arising from such transactions and new transactions
that are coming down the pipe.
- How do the public sector partners select projects to pursue as P3s?
- How do public sector partners weigh priorities and consider how to
pay for needed investments?
