CG/LA Infrastructure Inc., a global infrastructure strategy firm, released the 2015 Strategic 100 Latin American Infrastructure Report identifying $179 billion in immediate project opportunities across 11 infrastructure sectors throughout Latin America. The Strategic 100 focuses on project opportunities that will come to market in the next three to 18 months and is the result of a six-month analytic process, beginning with a preliminary list of 400 projects crowdsourced from industry experts across the region.
The Strategic 100 identifies a series of projects that will generate renewed growth and opportunity creation throughout Latin America, and focuses on a new growth paradigm for the region. The projects on the Strategic 100, when executed, will kick-off a long-term infrastructure investment effort. “We’ve produced this list as part of a roadmap for Latin America,” said CG/LA Infrastructure Founder and President, Norman F. Anderson. “Going forward, the focus needs to be on prosperity and opportunity creation within a context of a re-energized public sector efficiently overseeing a tripling of private sector investment in the region—in all types of projects, from transportation, to energy to water/wastewater and IT.”
The Strategic 100 is the cornerstone of the 13th Latin American Infrastructure Leadership Forum: Creating a New Growth Paradigm for Latin America. Taking place June 9 to 11, 2015 in Antigua Guatemala, the forum brings an infrastructure marketplace to 500-plus executives from throughout the region, and throughout the world. Forum Partners include: Platinum Partners Aconex, Trimble, and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB); Gold Partners Cementos Progreso, Marhnos, and Control Risks; and Silver Partner the National Energy Commission of Guatemala (CNEE). The National Agency for Partnerships for Economic Infrastructure Development of Guatemala is the Organizing Partner.
