Across the country, there is a clear demand for infrastructure development and financing, and the western states are no exception. However, now facing severe budgetary deficits at all levels of government, some states are looking afresh at the option to use PPPs.
 
Based on the success of our annual North American Energy and Infrastructure Conference in New York, Euromoney Seminars and Project Finance have decided to replicate this event on the west coast, and will host the event in a state that is making strides on the PPP front- California.
