Summary

Today, our world is in unfamiliar and everchanging territory, but our industries and our people are resilient. One of the things that has remained constant is the need to build and maintain our infrastructure. For this webinar, we brought together financing professionals with varying backgrounds to discuss how building now can get our economy rolling again, giving cities the boost they need to fix aging infrastructure.

Low interest rates, grants for smaller cities and hungry construction companies, coupled with design-build opportunities, are all factors that create this unique time in history. Join Tracy Streeter and Mike Talboy from Burns & McDonnell and Deirdre Finn from The Council of Infrastructure Financing Authorities (CIFA) as we outline existing and possible future funding opportunities.
