Attracting Private Equity and Risk Sharing to Public Infrastructure Projects
On September 16, 2025, Simon Santiago participated in a panel discussion on “Attracting Private Equity and Risk Sharing to Public Infrastructure Projects” during the 2025 American Public Transportation Association’s (APTA) TRANSform Conference.
Private sector participation is important in every transit project. When circumstances are right, the private sector can step in with private capital and/or share significant portions of the cost and/or revenue risks of projects. Panelists shared their views on this from their various perspectives.
APTA's TRANSform Conference is the flagship event for industry leaders, policymakers and innovators to focus on sustainable, technology-driven and resilient transit solutions
