The Integrated Energy Summit will bring together the
foremost industry and government leaders to establish policies and corporate strategies
that will bring success in the increasingly complex and dynamic global energy industry.
The
Summit convenes against a backdrop of:
Consolidation through mergers, acquisitions and alliances
Evolution of new models for energy markets and trading from rapid deregulation in the US
Continued uncertainty in key markets following the Asian currency crisis
Heightened risk sensitivity from lenders and investors
Despite these trends the worldwide opportunities and demand for new energy
infrastructure and privatization of energy infrastructure is enormous:
Currently over 2300 greenfield power projects are under development; a further 600 under
solicitation; 170 privatization requests are outstanding in 87 countries; moves to
liberalize and unbundle generation, transmission and distribution are afoot worldwide;
plus 60,000MW of divestiture has so far taken place in the US and that is just the
beginning
Discussions at this highly interactive Summit will allow energy industry leaders
to assess global opportunities and determine strategies that will lead to long-term growth
and profitability.
By participating you will be able to:
Sharpen your competitive strategy for the US, Europe and emerging energy markets by
comparing it with the industry's leaders
Profit by making the right choices for acquisitions, integrating assets, and leveraging
core competencies
Optimize your energy trading strategy and skills to improve your global risk management
Improve the economic viability of your emerging markets projects by examining the
failure factors in stalled energy projects and learning from their renegotiations
Increase multilateral and export credit agency support for your projects by assessing
their latest policies and initiatives
Speed up closure of long-term finance for your projects by learning how to improve
project finance structures and better mitigate currency and political risks
