In order to focus on essential spending such as healthcare and education, public bodies need to rely on long-term private partners that are capable of investing in infrastructure that requires large amounts of capital, but creates a lasting positive impact in economic, societal and environmental terms. At a time when government funding is being scaled back, the contribution of private investors has become essential – particularly in mobility, to step up the sector’s environmental transition and successfully bring about decarbonisation.
Public-private partnerships provide a solid foundation to help us rise to this challenge. Analysis by the World Bank indicates a strong correlation between the level of investment in infrastructure and the development of these partnerships. VINCI Concessions is one of the worldwide leaders who have managed to prove their ability in consecutive projects by applying standards of excellence to mobility infrastructure. Its investment capabilities and environmental commitments, as well as the aptitude of its business lines and their strong areas of expertise, give VINCI Concessions unique know-how in the transport sector. By delivering high-quality projects – designed, built and operated responsibly and effectively – the company is promoting the concession model in new regions, earning the trust of public authorities in markets where public-private partnerships are still rare, such as the United States, Germany and Serbia.
