What is a Public-Private Partnership? In its widest sense, a PPP can be defined as a long-term contractual agreement between the public authorities and the private sector. Generally, any combination or blending of public and private resources can be called a “public-private partnership.”

The demand for Public Private Partnerships as an increasingly attractive tool for infrastructure and urban development is evident, especially in an economic climate where fewer resources are available for public needs. PPPs are involved in a wide range of social and economics projects, but they are mostly popular to build and operate hospitals, schools, prisons, roads, bridges and tunnels and rail networks. They generate a large amount of private and public capital. In this way, such partnerships can be a good target for diverse consulting services.
