The Bond Buyer's latest class of exceptional muni industry young professionals will join us for a discussion on current economic developments and the impact they are having on the U.S. infrastructure projects and the rollout of the IIJA.

Our panel of muni industry experts will help us parse through the law and understand exactly what it does and doesn't do for the public finance industry.

Bolstered by the IIJA, the aim behind the District's first P3 deal is twofold: to convert D.C.'s network of more than 75,000 streetlights into energy-efficient LED bulbs and to upgrade its Wi-Fi infrastructure. To explain the intricacies of the deal, how it all came together and what to expect going forward, we will be joined by the parties directly involved in the project.

Top muni industry executives will share their views on the current developments and a road ahead.
