What We Discussed in 2025

Infrastructure is being redefined. From AI-powered demand shocks to energy security pressures and climate resilience, the global infrastructure landscape is facing more complexity—and more opportunity—than ever before.

In Berlin, 3000 senior decision-makers gathered to address the biggest questions shaping the future of the asset class. The conversations weren’t just about where capital is flowing—but how infrastructure investors are leading through transformation.
