From roadways, railways to airports and other smart-city initiatives, the last few years have witnessed a phenomenal change in the sector. And with the rampant growth and highly-concentrated demographic growth in cities, the infrastructure is growing more outdated thus forcing the Government to take corrective actions as rapid population in urban areas is pushing already inadequate infrastructure further beyond its capacity. This indication of significant challenges requires a crucial address that will be initiated at the Infra Focus summit, which brings together all stakeholders on a shared platform to discuss optimal solutions.

Be part of the change with the decisionmakers at the Economic Times 3rd Annual Infra Focus, a leadership convention.
