Over the past decade, a wave of major transport investment has defined Australia's infrastructure sector, supported by robust state finances, economic rationalism, and federal backing.

While ongoing investment in transport and social infrastructure remains integral to the Australian economy, today the pipeline for infrastructure looks substantially different, providing a new set of opportunities.

The expansion of cloud computing and AI is expected to drive substantial demand for data centers in the next decade. Simultaneously, the geopolitical landscape is prompting increased investments in defense and security. Additionally, the urgent need for decarbonization is set to propel growth in the energy transition sector.

As Australia and Japan draw closer and closer, join us to discuss how our two nations can collaborate to harness these emerging opportunities and shape the next decade of infrastructure development.
