Southeast Public Finance 2025

Session archives
2025
At a time when the Southeast is undergoing massive transformation—from population surges and infrastructure booms to innovative financing models—SOUTHEAST PUBLIC FINANCE brought together the decision-makers who are driving that change.

In Atlanta, the 2025 event unpacked the most pressing issues facing municipal finance today: resilient infrastructure, public-private partnerships, transit expansion, energy modernization, and economic development across the region’s fastest-growing states. If you work in public finance and weren’t in the room, you missed the strategies, insights and connections that are already influencing the next wave of projects from Florida to North Carolina, Georgia to Tennessee.
