Build resilient infrastructure through strategic public-private collaboration and policy innovation

Catalyze the future of infrastructure with our comprehensive public-private partnership (PPP) programme, designed to empower professionals navigating India's dynamic development landscape. With the surge in public spending and growing involvement of private players, the relevance of robust PPP frameworks for infrastructure development has never been more critical. This PPP training program offers an in-depth understanding of the PPP framework in India, equipping participants to navigate challenges related to risk allocation, regulatory clarity, and financial structuring across diverse sectors.

India is witnessing a shift towards futuristic infrastructure, backed by initiatives such as Digital India, Atmanirbhar Bharat, Startup India, and Make-in-India, where PPP in infrastructure development plays a pivotal role. Yet, many projects still face bottlenecks in policy design, legal enforcement, and compliance.

Real case studies, interactive learning, and expert insights will guide participants in designing and managing effective PPP structures.
