East Asia needs to spend USD$1 trillion on infrastructure over the next five years to meet the needs of rapidly expanding cities, rising populations and robust demand from growing businesses. The public sector cannot afford investment on this level: inevitably the private sector will be required to fill the gap.

In response, Euromoney Conferences is holding The Asia Pacific Infrastructure Congress on September 5-6 2006 in Hong Kong. This inaugural event will analyze the potential for infrastructure investment in the Asia Pacific region and the opportunities being made available to the international capital markets.

Through keynote speeches, interactive panel discussions and special focus workshops delegates will have a unique opportunity to meet with and hear from the region's key decision makers. Our expert speakers will include senior policy makers, leading global investors and the top private sector professionals driving infrastructure development across the Asia Pacific region.

In addition, senior representatives from China, India, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea and Vietnam will offer delegates an in-depth insight into the opportunities in their respective countries.
