At a time of rapid economic change, Premier Wynne is betting on infrastructure. Her government’s historic investments in public infrastructure, boosted by the Alternative Finance and Procurement (AFP) model, are attracting global interest. As the Premier steps up her U.S. engagement in the midst of the NAFTA negotiations, what is she hearing from her American counterparts and why does she believe these investments will pay off in terms of Ontario’s long-term economic development and trade initiatives?
Interviewer: Diane Francis, Journalist & Author
Speaker: Hon. Kathleen Wynne, Premier of Ontario

Twenty-first century businesses built on predictability and efficiency are at greater risk of being left behind in an economy that will be driven by entrepreneurship and innovation. How will the digital and disruptive culture of this century impose new demands on the next generation of transformational infrastructure? Ismail will detail a provocative view of the future we haven’t yet imagined; a vision that will take you out of your comfort zone and point to solutions to problems we aren’t yet aware of.
