    The Philippine Government is planning to spend five percent of its GDP on infrastructure in 2016 and is rolling out projects ranging from railroads, ports, airports, and roads to schools, hospitals, and a major prison facility. There are enormous opportunities for U.S. companies with expertise and experience in these sectors. With this, the Department of Commerce recently signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with the Philippine Government to establish an Infrastructure Collaboration Platform to increase the awareness of U.S. companies on the wide range of these projects in the country.

    On March 7th, the U.S. Commercial Service invites you to participate in a webinar featuring top officials from the Government of the Philippines, and a private sector partner to discuss the upcoming opportunities in the infrastructure sector.

Speakers will include representatives of the key departments in the Phil Government
