The Infrastructure Forum

The Infrastructure Forum brings together the key players in infrastructure, whether investors, operators, contractors, economic regulators or professional advisors. It has become the meeting place for confidential and constructive discussion about ways to promote the development of infrastructure networks in the UK and to broaden the range of options available to policymakers and regulators. The expertise of its team, the knowledge and experience of members of its specialised working groups, and its excellent trusted relationships with public authorities and agencies in the UK and internationally all contribute to its effectiveness. Its annual policy summit, seminars, roundtables and discussions attract ministers, chairmen and chief executives and agency heads to share their thinking and exchange ideas and perspectives with those in The Infrastructure Forum's network. The Infrastructure Forum which is cross party and independent attracts engagement from policymakers in government and opposition. It has worked to promote long termism in the development of infrastructure policy, the joining up of the various parts of government dealing with infrastructure and the establishment of bodies like the National Infrastructure Commission and Infrastructure & Projects Authority, which can take a long-term view on infrastructure development. It has been actively involved in discussions regarding the design and establishment of the UK Infrastructure Bank. It makes regular contributions to the chancellor's annual budget, where the establishment of Structures and Buildings Allowances and super-deductions were proceeded by much Forum work.
