あらすじ・解説
Richard is the Global Head of Infrastructure at KPMG where he leads a team of nearly 3,000 people. Richard is an authority within the infrastructure industry.
Key takeaways:
- Infrastructure drives quality of life – society functions on the strength of its infrastructure
- Covid, and the rising societal awareness of climate change, is releasing the ability of Governments to be more radical than ever before
- Governments and the industry are facing three key challenges:
- How to prioritise investment
- How to leverage technology to improve delivery
- How to increase the long-term skills and resilience of the construction industry
- The quantum and speed of infrastructure funding required now outstrips the resources of Government – unlocking the trillions of dollars available from the private sector is a priority
- The energy (renewables) and transport (electrification, digital connectivity and automation) sectors are being transformed – the burning platform now exists to make wholesale changes to these markets
- Sustainability is a global issue – climate change cannot be isolated to a single industry or geography
