In 2026, InfraVision is exploring the theme: THE AWAKENING OF THE FORCE how infrastructure can be a major lever to achieve the required transitions
As infrastructure systems are pushed to evolve faster than ever, the real challenge is not whether to transition, but how to do so at the appropriate pace, with optimal risk-taking, the most effective and aligned incentives, and a well-designed governance.
Critical pace
How can we synchronize and accelerate the sustainable transitions at a pace that is both ambitious and realistic?
Targeted incentives
How can we design incentives that truly align all stakeholders and engage infrastructure for long-term success?
Needed Governance
What forms of governance are needed to plan delivery, monitor execution, and define performance?
Optimal pricing
How should risks be priced so that strategic, investment, and technological trade-offs are transparent and future-proof?
And many more question, perhaps yours ?
What we are planning
We organize a series of workshops to discuss the awakening of the infrastructure force
For 2026 annual research, we aim to organize:
- Three podcasts
- A webinar with expert speakers
- An in-person breakfast panel
- A keynote speech featuring a public figure
These workshops and podcasts will contribute to the development of a long‑form report, which will be presented at InfraVision’s annual conference during Paris InfraWeek in November 2026.
