4th Annual Queensland Infrastructure Summit - 18-19 March 2010, Brisbane
Now in its 4th year, IIR Conferences' Queensland Infrastructure Summit will explore the importance of accessing and securing sufficient infrastructure financing and provide the latest information on how organisations can take advantage of the infrastructure project opportunities that lie ahead.
In 2008-2009 Queensland's economy grew by .08 per cent during the most severe financial and economic crisis since the 1930s. Continued growth during what appears to be the now-waning global financial crisis lends proof to the strength of the state's rapidly-expanding infrastructure future.
With sustained growth comes continued challenges to providing Queensland’s ambitious $124 billion, 20-year infrastructure program. Accessing finance for major projects is a constant challenge with the recently re-elected Queensland Labor Government exploring new and innovative ways to source infrastructure finance.
Gain essential insights into the planning, funding and delivery of crucial infrastructure projects in the state from a fantastic line-up of speakers including:
The Hon Andrew Fraser MP, Treasurer of Queensland
The Hon Rachel Nolan MP, Minister for Transport
Colin Jensen, Department of Infrastructure & Planning
Alan Tesch, Department of Transport & Main Roads
Gary White, Department of Infrastructure & Planning
Michael Walsh, Queensland Health
Al Wagner, Department of Education & Training
Greg Nielsen, Office of Clean Energy
John McEvoy, Department of Transport & Main Roads
Arthur Stamatoudis, Department of Transport & Main Roads
Ross Barker, Office of Economic & Statistical Research
Tim Poole, Gold Coast Rapid Transit Project
Dr Raymond Wilson, BrisConnections
Ian Greer, Standard & Poor's
Laurie Walker, Commonwealth Bank of Australia
Professor Stephen Gray, University of Queensland
Grant Pollard, Value Decisions
