| 0930-1045 |
Why is PPPI a significant opportunity for emerging markets? What trends can be discerned in terms of how PPPI fits into overall financing for infrastructure development and service delivery worldwide? What are the data and definition problems associated with these measurements? What were the key drivers of the PPPI market in 2007–08? What role did emerging economies play both as destinations and sources of PPPI investment funds? What is the future outlook of the PPP market?

| 1400-1530 |
What is the role of equity financing in PPP? What is the actual and potential size of globally available equity funds for PPP investments and under what conditions? What have been the patterns underlying the emergence of infrastructure funds? What are the role, risk preference, incentive structure and impact of infrastructure funds? How does this compare with funds from strategic investors and what do the differences between the two imply for expected financial returns, exit mechanisms, etc.?

Topic 3: The spatial dimension of PPPs: trends and capacity issues for PPPs at sub national level |
| 1600-1730 |
How have decentralization and other key shifts in governance contributed to the emergence of PPPs at sub national levels (i.e. municipal, provincial, etc)? What is the respective role of national and sub-national governments in sub-national PPP projects? What are the implications for the financing of sub-national PPP projects? What are the different institutional models for governance of sub-national PPPs? Are there special capacity constraints? Are there good examples of how to operate PPPs at a city/region with or without national support? What can a national PPP unit do to support sub-national delivery of PPP projects? These sessions will feature examples of successful PPP units at sub national levels as well as the focus on sub national PPPs at the national level (examples from the United Kingdom, South Africa, Brazil, and India).
