Seminar on TEN-T Project Finance & PPPs


On Tuesday 1 June 2010 the TEN-T EA organised a Seminar on TEN-T Project Finance & PPPs in the Borschette Conference Centre in Brussels, Belgium.

 

The purpose of this event was to provide a forum for discussion on TEN-T project finance in general and PPPs in particular. It gave TEN-T beneficiaries and applicants an opportunity to reflect on their own project portfolio and the role PPPs could play in its development.

 

As part of this two-day event, the Seminar followed the Info Day 2010 by one day to allow participants to attend both.
