CIAC Plenary banner

The Asian Development Bank has estimated developing Asia would need over US$26 trillion in infrastructure investment from 2016-30, or US$1.7 trillion per year. Pressure is increasing for that infrastructure to be sustainable and green. Smart and purposeful contributions from institutional investors as well as technology and service providers are required to deliver results. 

This CIAC2025 session explores the areas of infrastructure need and how companies and institutions in Asia and Canada are responding to the sustainable infrastructure opportunities in Asia.
