Working together to improve the UK investment landscape

The Government announced an infrastructure guarantee package worth £50 billion and promises another 'jobs and growth' package in the autumn.

The announcement came six months after the publication of the updated National Infrastructure Plan, which relies heavily on private sector investment to deliver the improvements and innovations the UK needs to remain internationally competitive. The third Water UK Investing in Infrastructure conference will provide an essential, pan-utility forum to debate the challenge of financing and the efficacy of these new government measures.

Rt Hon Dr Vince Cable MP, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and Geoffrey Spence, Chief Executive, Infrastructure UK will be discussing this financing and progress on the National Infrastructure Plan.

The event will explore other critical, cross-sector issues and bring together leaders engaged in UK infrastructure from energy, transport, construction, water and telecommunications.
