Infrastructure

Infrastructure

National infrastructure remains a high priority area for government spending. At WIG, we bring together the sectors to allow for open and honest dialogue on long term solutions to infrastructure challenges.

National infrastructure supports all elements of growth, whether it be the drive for net zero or levelling up of the country. We provide a trusted space to bring together the major voices from key government departments and executive agencies, along with major employers, charities and higher education institutions for open and honest dialogue on long term solutions to infrastructure challenges.

Discussions and content in the Infrastructure theme focus on:

  • Funding of infrastructure
  • Transport and major projects
  • Housing and planning
  • Digital and innovation in infrastructure

All topics and ideas are extensively researched with ideas gathered from our members and the infrastructure advisory council.
