Agenda Hosting of the Blue Dot Network 

Wednesday 23 April 14:00 – 17:30 Executive Consultation Group (ECG) meeting (invitation only)


The need for quality infrastructure development around the globe far exceeds available public resources. Leaders from the Blue Dot Network Steering Committee along with senior executives will discuss the key role of the private sector in filling this gap and how the Blue Dot Network can mobilise investment into quality projects.

Call for projects

The Blue Dot Network certification applies to infrastructure projects across major sectors, including energy, water and sanitation, transport, and ICT. It can accommodate projects at different stages of the lifecycle, from planning and preparation to construction and operations. 

We encourage stakeholders seeking to benefit from the Blue Dot Network’s first round of certification to submit projects for consideration here. The Secretariat will review submissions and revert to selected projects with further information. To find out more about the Blue Dot Network, visit www.bluedot-nertwork.org. Projects developed under various ownership and delivery models (e.g., traditional procurement, public-private partnerships, or privatized models) can also be certified.
